Lüderenalp Tour

to the Bike Hotel > www.kroneluthern.ch

This tour is a must for every biker and at the same time a challenge.

Starting from the Bike Hotel Krone, you leave the village following the Schwarzenbach in the direction of Nesslisboden. After about 3 km, you can take another look back down to the start before crossing the first horizon at Ahorn and at the same time the cantonal border LU/BE.

The descent via Fritzeflue to Wasen is peppered with wonderful single trails. After the finger muscles have been put to the test, it’s now the thighs' turn as the next destination is Lüdernalp (1141 m above sea level). A mountain path then leads to Egg and from there a long descent through Gohl to the lowest point of the tour at 716 m above sea level. From here you can make a detour to nearby Bärau or Langnau i.E. The tour continues through the valley past Wallestullen and Bach into Trub. Now follows a long ascent along the stream of Fankhausbach to Mettlenalp.

Hopefully, you still have enough strength to enjoy the last steep climb to the highest point of the tour at Stächelegg (1304 m above sea level).

(If you want to top this kingly stage, take a detour from here to the highest point in the Emmental, the Napf. This is likely the most accessible route to the Napf, and the amazing view will reward you for your efforts.)

After leaving the canton of Bern at Stächelegg, wonderful single trails and forest sections will accompany you down to Änzibach. After crossing the stream, a forest road winds its way to Mülibühl.

With the Napf at your back and the evening sun on your face, you arrive at Luthern-Dorf with empty muscles but full mental batteries.
