Experience the biosphere reserve in a completely new way and admire the nearby mountains from the heights.

This stage deals with the south side of the Napf and its wonderful sun-tanned slopes. From Langnau, we leisurely follow the Ilfis and soon reach Trubschachen, the sturdy Emmental village with the enticing scent of baked goods in the air. Having escaped the local biscuit paradise, we climb a lonely valley landscape that leads us higher and higher into the hills until the border mountain 'Turner' marking the transition to the Lucerne Entlebuch. Here, at 1200 meters, the panorama of the valley opens up along with the rocky arena of the mountains grouped behind it. It's a feeling of 99 curves down to Escholzmatt, which swiftly carries us downhill. From now on we enjoy the most beautiful heights through the UNESCO biosphere reserve and its scenic gems. Deep ravines open beneath us, and the mighty shoulders of the Napf carry us safely to the village of Entlebuch, where a well-deserved afternoon snack awaits us.
