Community Description

Brunnen in the canton of Schwyz is located on Lake Lucerne with a view of its easternmost arm, Lake Uri, and in the direction of Bürgenstock and the Gotthard massif. Thanks to its central location in a varied mountain and lake landscape, Brunnen is the ideal starting point for excursions in Central Switzerland. The holiday resort of Brunnen nestles between Urmiberg and Stoos-Fronalpstock and opposite Rütli and Schillerstein, in the heart of the homeland of William Tell. The holiday resort is well developed by train, bus, motorway and ship, as well as a small cable car to the Urmiberg, the eastern foothills of the Rigi. Hikers should plan a few stages on the "Swiss Path" which leads around Lake Uri: the joint venture of the Swiss cantons begins at the Rütli, the birthplace of the Confederation in 1291, and ends in Brunnen. At the stage locations there is the possibility of returning with the scheduled boat. For bikers, three local panorama routes lead directly from Brunnen in the direction of Mythen, Rigi and through the local forest. A wide range of accommodation, wellness and sports facilities awaits on the sun terrace of Morschach above Brunnen. A whirlpool, wild water stream, children's pool, a 100-metre-long slide and a large sports area promise pure pleasure. The wellness oasis includes the Roman-Irish thermal baths with sauna landscape, brine and vitality baths, the massage department and fitness and beauty center.
