Quick Summary

  • Parked in one of the parking lots close to the Schwyz/Uri border near Liplisbüel.
  • This hike was very steep (around 1100m of elevation gain over ~4km).
  • The final portion close to the summit of the Wasserbergfirst was partially secured by chains.
    • These would not have been strictly necessary, but they definitely made the ascent/descent more pleasant.
  • We had excellent weather conditions when we did this hike.
    • Given the mix of grassy/dirt paths, smooth limestone slabs, and the steep terrain, this trail would likely be very problematic when wet.
  • In the interest of saving our knees, we decided to descend via the gravel road from Abigweid to Grüen Boden.
