Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Lucerna do Werthenstein

This scenic ride takes you from the charming lakeside city of Lucerne out into the rolling countryside, ending at the peaceful village of Werthenstein. Starting in Lucerne, you’ll leave behind its famous wooden Chapel Bridge and lively old town as you wind through quiet back roads and rural tracks—most of the journey is on tranquil, low-traffic roads, so you can really soak in those Swiss views.

Be ready for a workout: there’s a solid 500 meters of climbing along the way, but you’ll be rewarded with picturesque vistas and classic Lucerne landscapes—think green meadows, tidy villages, and distant mountains. The majority of the surface is paved, so it’s a comfortable ride for most bikes, with just a touch of gravel and unpaved sections to remind you you’re in the countryside.

Arriving at Werthenstein, you’ll find a hidden gem: the beautiful baroque Werthenstein Monastery perched above the River Kleine Emme. It’s a peaceful place to catch your breath after a satisfying ride. Whether you’re after fresh air, some Swiss history, or just a great day on the bike, this route delivers!
