Circular hike from Stäldeli via Sewenseeli to Fürstein

The hike starts at the Alpwirtschaft Stäldeli near Flühli and initially leads uphill through the Glaubenberg moorland. The path winds through forest and over open terrain before reaching the idyllic Sewenseeli. A chapel with benches is located directly above the small mountain lake - a lovely spot for a first break and to enjoy the view of the surrounding mountains.

From Sewenseeli, the route continues to Alp Obersewen and then climbs increasingly steeply to Fürstein. The summit sits at 2,039 m a.s.l. and is the highest point of the hike. Once at the top, an impressive panoramic view awaits: the vista stretches from Pilatus across Entlebuch all the way to the Bernese Alps.

After the summit experience, the descent begins. The path initially leads over open sheep pastures and a section that is steep and somewhat uneven in places down to Wasserfallenegg. Afterwards, the terrain becomes gentler again, and the route leads through forest and meadows via Änggelauene back towards Stäldeli.
