Klewenalp–Stockhütte

From Klewenalp, the family-friendly hiking trail descends across alpine pastures and through forest to Stockhütte. The Klewenkapelle, Ängibach and barbecue sites provide highlights along the way.

The Beckenried–Klewenalp cable car takes hikers to the starting point at the Klewenalp upper station. Right at the start, the hiking trail passes the Klewenkapelle. Below the cone-shaped Klewenstock, the route reaches its highest point at just under 1'600 m.

The trail then continues towards Stafel and Ängi across open alpine pastures, with only a few short uphill sections. This family hike of just over five kilometres gradually loses elevation. For families with pushchairs, a sports model is recommended. Several barbecue sites along the way provide places to rest. At Ängi, the trail follows the Ängibach for a short stretch; wet meadows and pastures characterise the surroundings here.

The forest grows denser as the descent continues. Shortly before the destination, the Alpgädeli lies directly on the route, before the first houses of Stockhütte come into view. After just under two hours, the hike ends at the Stockhütte upper station at around 1'280 m; from here, the gondola descends into the valley.
