Spellbinding Alpine PassesFar view, tranquility - summer and winter.
The Arni terrace high above the Uri Reuss Valley is accessed by two railways. From Amsteg, the Amsteg–Arnisee cable car conveys passengers into a completely different world in only a few minutes.
The valley station is located right next to the Amsteg motorway exit; free parking spaces are available to passengers. The cable car conveys day-trippers to an elevation of 800 metres and hence into a pure idyll: blooming Alpine meadows, grazing cows and goats, for people who have time.
Hike, bike, fish or simply enjoy a picnic by the Arni lake. If you do not want to bring along food in your rucksack, you will find two inns and a mountain shack that will tend to their guests’ wellbeing.
In the winter, the snow lays a magical blanket over the silent landscape. Ideal for winter hiking, snowshoeing or to set out on a ski tour. Recharge your batteries in intact nature.
The excursion can be easily combined with the Instchi-Arnisee cable car.
Fantastic times – summer and winter.
