An outpost of Catholicism in a Reformed area.

Beautiful alpine pasture. Very busy on weekends. Starting point for hikes toward Küssnacht, Immensee, and Rigi.

A brochure from the parish of St. Martin in Root provides information on the history of the power place Michael's Cross: "Around 1,500 years ago, the pious Medardus decided to build a wooden hut in the Meggerwald forest to live there. While he was busy felling trees, a boy came to him and asked Medardus to take two tree trunks on his shoulders and follow him. After a four-hour hike, the two arrived at a hill near Root. There, the boy asked the hermit to build a cross from the two trunks. With the words: 'I am the Archangel Michael, sent by my Lord Jesus Christ to mark and consecrate this place with the sign of the holy cross,' the boy took on the form of the Archangel Michael. Since then, the hill on which the chapel stands today has been called Michael's Cross.

In winter, the road can become dangerously slippery, especially after a sudden change in weather with wet snow and ice.

https://www.luftseilbahnseebodenalp.ch/ A newly renovated cable car, which carries 110 passengers per hour, leads to Seebodenalp. The public bus stops in front of the cable car and goes directly to Küssnacht SBB station. The road to Seebodenalp has also been recently renovated. However, it is steep, narrow in places, partially single-lane, and has limited passing places. On nice summer days, dangerous traffic chaos regularly occurs when many vehicles converge and a complete standstill threatens – at that point, the transport service will probably not let you go up at all. The cable car, bicycle, or walking can be a much better option, depending on the crowds, the weather, or your driving skills.

very good alpine farm with super friendly staff and children's playground

The last great ice age reached its peak around 1321,000 years ago. The Rigi was surrounded by the Reuss glacier, which extended far into the Mittelland and left clear traces. At that time, there was a thick layer of ice in the valleys around the Rigi. Large amounts of debris and boulders (erratics from the Gotthard massif) were carried into our regions from the upper Urner Reuss valley. As the climate warmed more and more and the glaciers slowly retreated, the glacial deposits created wave-like terrain. On the Seebodenalp there is a striking lateral moraine of the Reuss glacier, which extends from the cable car station to the Altruodisegg. The so-called Albert Heim Stone is an important witness to this and is the starting point for the circular trail on the traces of the ice age. (Source: https://seebodenalp.ch/gletscherspur/)
