The 4.5-hour Chapel Trail Bürglen provides a varied and interesting hiking experience around the village of Bürglen, leading past meadows, gardens and homes decorated with flowers. From the PostBus stop “Bürglen UR, Post” walk to the parish church, which will be your starting point. The signposted trail first leads via Obrieden into the Rieder Valley, then to Brügg, into the Spiss, down to Hartolfingen and back to the starting point.
Insider tip: A precious Pietà dating from the 14th century awaits you at the Riedertal Chapel.
