    Short, crisp ascent from Einsiedeln Hospital to the Katzenstrick.

      Interesting: The Chatzenstrick/Katzenstrick has nothing to do with a cat (Swiss German: Chatz) or with a rope. The first part of the word goes back to a farmer named Kätzi (also spelled Chätzi) who farmed this area. The second part of the word comes from strokes. This is a field name (Old High German Strih = stripes, district, Middle High German line = land). The original name was: Chätzis Strichen, which means something like: the land of Chätzi.

      The Lucerne pilgrimage route to the pilgrimage site of Einsiedeln used to lead over the Katzenstrick, which gave it the nickname Katzenstrecker.
