Very beautiful small reservoir above Gurtnellen/Amsteg. You can go quite high up with the Intschi cable car. The best way to get there on a mountain bike is to take the road from Gurtnellen (asphalt at the beginning, gravel for the last third over the highest point, Heissigegg 1,409 meters). The walk around the lake is worthwhile. Large shady picnic area with benches and two small restaurants. The downhill from Rinderstafel 1,329 meters to Intschi train station 649 meters is tough, long and rough, S2.

Snowshoeing

Small reservoir, which is used for energy production. To reach over two cable cars or in the summer on foot. In winter, there are three very nice snowshoe tours.

Mountain biking

Very nice small reservoir of the Altdorf electricity plant.
Two cable cars lead up, which attracts many hikers and bikers when the weather is nice.
