ヴァッセンのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

Invites you to linger

An old ruin suddenly appears in the alpine mountain landscape.

From the Pfaffensprung reservoir you have a wonderful view of the small church of Wassen at the end of the stage.

The hut can be reached from Sustenstrasse in two ways, so that you can take different routes when going up and down.

The tradition tells that a priest, who had stolen one of the most beautiful girls in the valley, jumped boldly over the gorge with his prey to escape the hard-pressed pursuers. The end of the lake is formed by a 32 m high arch dam with a crest length of 64.1 m. The dammed water supplies the power plant in Amsteg.

The Dieden Bridge is a steel cable-stayed bridge built in 1994.

Well-groomed Alps and colorful hay meadows are real eye-catchers here. In addition to caring for the landscape, more and more farms in Uri are pampering their guests with a wide range of agrotourism offers.

The church of Wassen is famous because of the helical tunnels of the Gotthard mountain route. During a train journey, it becomes visible from three different perspectives, which inspired the cabaret artist Emil to write "S'Chileli vo Wassä". After a chapel built around the 13th century on the striking church hill, today's church was built in the years 1734 to 1735 in the baroque style.
