Altdorf - Göscheneralp
A cycling route starting in Altdorf, Canton of Uri, Switzerland.
Overview
About this route
From Altdorf, follow Bahnhof- or Attinghauserstrasse to the Reuss bridge in Attinghausen. Here, switch to the
eastern Wuhrweg and ride along the Reuss to the Reuss bridge. After crossing the bridge, follow the side road,
passing by idyllic farms and cozy spots along the Reuss, through Wiler and Butzen to Amsteg. There you will find the
impressive railway bridge over the Chärstelenbach.
The varied tour continues with a short climb onto the Gotthard mule track. Passing the avalanche protection niches of 'Brisch Laui', you ride to Meitschligen. From the eastern valley flank between Gurtnellen and
Wassen, you can get excellent views of trains snaking up the upper Reuss valley over bridges, viaducts, and hairpin tunnels.
Behind Wattingen, you pass under the canopy of the St. Joseph chapel, built in the last quarter of the 18th century. The route continues along a magnificent forest path via Neiselental to the railway village of Göschenen.
The final section of the tour leads you into the fascinating Göscheneralp valley. On the so-called Jeep Weg, you ride a beautifully laid-out path with a pleasant incline along the Göschener Reuss. Over the mountain road, which snakes elegantly through the wild rocky landscape, you reach the tour's destination, the dam crest of the impressive Göscheneralp reservoir.
