The Arvigrat runs along the border of the cantons of Nidwalden and Obwalden. The whole way is a nice tightrope walk. The route only occasionally has somewhat narrower passages and therefore requires a little surefootedness and a certain head for heights, but everything is within normal limits. Starting from the Ächerli, the path first leads through wooded terrain. With the steady ascent towards the high point of the Arvigrat, the view increases more and more, and you can enjoy a fantastic view. A breath-taking mountain panorama opens up fabulous views of the Engelberg and Sarneraa valleys and the Nidwalden, Engelberg and Obwalden peaks far into the Bernese and Vaud Alps and even as far as the Jura.

Magnificent vantage point with fantastic views... The path leads along the ridge, but is doable without difficulty.

Great circular hike from the Acherli Pass
via the central Swiss Arvigrat
(2,014 m) along the border of
Cantons of Nidwalden and Obwalden. The Tour
grants grandiose views into the depths
Engelberger and the Sarneraa valley as well
Panoramic views of the Pre-Alps and
Alpine wreath and impresses with your
varied flora and fauna.
