This short but rewarding route starts at Rigi Kulm, just behind the shed at the end of the tracks of the Rigi railways. The first section is the steepest but manageable and leads to the Kulmhütte. There the path branches off and then runs along a level area towards Rigi Staffel.
In the last third, you have the possibility to make a detour to the covered firepit – the perfect place for a break with panoramic views. Afterwards, the path continues to Rigi Staffel, where you can connect to the cogwheel railways to Goldau or Vitznau.
