GLStoos Ridge is the most EPIC hike I’ve done in Switzerland.
I love it because you have Lake Lucerne on one side, jagged Alps on the other. Absolutely unreal bucket-list experience.
A few quick tips if you’re planning it: take the first lifts up so you beat the crowds. Bring layers (it gets cold and windy up top). Also, double check lift times before you go so you’re not stranded. If you miss the last chairlift down, you’ve basically got two choices: hike down or stay up on Stoos.
Fun fact: to get up to this hike, you get to ride the steepest funicular railway in the world! So it’s not just the hike that makes this experience unique.
The hike is called the Stoos Ridge hike, Klingenstock → Fronalpstock. It’s about 4.5 km one-way and most people take around 2 to 2.5 hours. But you’ll want to stop constantly for photos haha.
Save this for your Switzerland trip and send it to the friend who would actually take this out of the group chat. 🌄
