Hardly any other region of Switzerland possesses as many natural treasures as the "Wild West" of Lucerne. Here you find the largest and most numerous moor landscapes of Switzerland and a fauna and flora of (inter)national importance. No wonder Entlebuch was designated by UNESCO as the first biosphere reserve in Switzerland. Over 400 square kilometers stretches a mystical world promising peace, inspiration, and relaxation. The over 80 km long Moorland Landscape Trail leads in five stages to the mystical moors and offers extraordinary experiences: rugged Schrattenfels and gentle moor landscapes, deep trenches and gorges from the Ice Age, steep limestone cliffs of the Schwändelifluh, or primeval mountain pine moors and romantic mountain lakes.
