From Weggis, the trail climbs steadily via Rigiblick - Unterstutzberg. The last part of the climb from Steingaden to the Räb alpine farm is a little steeper. The trail leads back to Weggis via Tannenberg.

The hike on the southwest slope of the Rigi leads to the edge of the Seebodenalp, to the Räb alpine farm.

Directions

The starting point is at the boat station in Weggis. From the village crossing, follow Rigiblickstrasse (between the schoolhouse and the parish church) and Untereggistrasse straight ahead. At the "Schlosshof" farmhouse, keep right and you will pass other farms on the asphalt road. After a few bends, you will reach the pretty house at Unterstutzberg. After crossing the meadow, you will pass through a short stretch of forest. The path continues to climb until you reach an asphalt road. Cross this and continue up through the forest. Soon, the Räb alpine farm comes into view. The effort is rewarded with a fantastic view of Lake Lucerne and the lowlands.

After a refreshment in the Räbalp, the path leads along the Rigi slope to Bergli and Schlieriberg. Now the descent becomes steeper - along a hedge - to Tannenberg, Telli and back to the village centre of Weggis.
