Route: Seelisberg – Bauen – Isleten
3 hrs, 8 km, 160 meters up and 530 meters down. Level: Easy.
Organized by: Vicky (speaks ENG, DE)
About the hike
We set off from the Seelisberg, Dorf public transport stop and then take a leisurely walk past the Hotel Sonnenberg – a real “lost place”. At the same time, we enjoy our first view of Lake Lucerne, with the Kleine and Grosser Mythen mountains in the distance. We then walk through the Tannwald, with a view of the Seeli, past Beroldingen Castle and down many steps towards Bauen. In Bauen, we can take a break, and anyone brave enough can have a dip in the lake.
From Bauen, the route runs parallel to Lake Uri through a pedestrian tunnel with plenty of viewing windows to the Isleten boat station. From there, we take the boat back to either Beckenried, Lucerne or Flüelen.
Please note
The ticket for the boat costs extra, but is included in the public transport fare.
The hike is currently fully booked. However, you are welcome to register below and we will put you on the waiting list and let you know as soon as a place becomes available!

How to register
To register, please fill out the form below. Please note that your registration is binding. Places are limited to a maximum of 10 – “first come, first served” 😉 After registering, you will receive confirmation and a message from the organizer shortly.
IMPORTANT: If you are unexpectedly unable to attend, please let us know by May 25th at latest so that we can give others on the waiting list the opportunity to join. Participants who cancel at short notice will be excluded from future events. We strive to offer our events free of charge and invest a lot of our free time in these events (we all work on a voluntary basis), but unfortunately we have experienced many no-shows/no-replies or last-minute cancellations in recent years, which is demotivating for the organizers. Therefore, we had to establish this rule.
Disclaimer / Please note
The hike is free of charge, but our organizers always appreciate a small tip via TWINT for their volunteer work (organizing and conducting a hike takes about three days of effort). The number will be announced after registration, and you will be invited to join a WhatsApp group. Food and drinks are not included in our hikes and must be brought along by participants. Participation is at your own risk and responsibility, as we are only a volunteer community of friends and not an official tour operator. You will therefore be asked to confirm a disclaimer below. You can find more information in our FAQ.
