Highlights

Beckenried

This lakeside resort is where you alight from the boat and the start of your mountain adventure. A charming place for a coffee before you head to the Klewenalp.

Walking

There are plenty of walks from the Klewenalp including a wheelchair accessible route. You can walk from Klewenalp to picturesque Stockhütte for more scenic view and take another cable car down to Emmetten and a walk/bus ride back to the boat. 

Bikeboard Stockhütte-Emmetten

Enjoy a ride descending rapidly from the Stockhütte to Emmetten. This new form of sports equipment is easy to use and guaranteed fun. Start at the top station of the gondola and enjoy the 5.7 km long descent to Emmetten. Hire is around 10 Sfrs per trip including helmet. Bike boarding is suitable for ages 12 upwards.

Ricola Herb Garden

The Panorama is a newly designed Ricola herb garden. Medicinal herbs are planted in the spring and the circular layout of the garden provides information about the 13 herbs that go in to each Ricola herbal sweet.

Petting zoo

There is a petting zoo for children to enjoy on the Klewenalp with mini pigs, goats, rabbits, ducks and chickens. 

Marmots

The marmot families look forward to your visit and are located in the marmot enclosure right next to the Klewenbahn mountain station. The marmot is undoubtedly the most famous animal in the alpine fauna and you can see them until about mid-September.
