The hike, which takes just under two hours, leads from the Zug train station through Zug’s old town to Oberwil, where the best cherries thrive thanks to the local climate.
This region is home to delicious table cherries, which traditionally grow on standard trees or ripen in low-stem orchards sheltered from the weather. The region’s famous Zuger Kirschwasser is made from the small, black, and sugar-sweet “Brennchriesi” cherries.
The flower symbols now indicate the current stage of blooming: pink means that the cherry blossoms have already begun to bloom along the trail, while white means that there are no cherry blossoms yet.
