    Hiking

    The Fätschbach (also just Fätsch) is a 13-kilometer-long left tributary of the Linth in the Swiss cantons of Uri and Glarus, which flows through the Urner Boden.

    Hiking

    The Fätsch is a mountain stream with different faces. It rises in a glacial lake, falls as a waterfall over a large rock face and forms wild floodplain areas with many gravel areas in the upper part of the Urnerboden. In the moorland area, a longer section is canalized. A dam protects the cultivated land from flooding.

    Here the Fätsch flows freely again. Undeveloped river arms, gravel islands and natural banks form an intact river system and invite you to bathe your feet in the cold water.
