Lucerne is known for the Lions-Monument, the mountain pasture Rigi and the Kappel-bridge. Still, the city has so much more to offer: picturesquely situated on the Lake of Lucerne. This city is the gate to the heart of Switzerland, the homeland of Wilhelm Tell and the founding place of the Swiss confederation. Situated outside of the town centre, your hotel is the ideal starting point for bicycle tours in this region. You will discover an idyllic landscape with medieval city centres. Switzerland’s impressive mountain panoramas and beautiful lakes. Come and discover the heart of Switzerland – it will amaze you!
Easy to intermediate trips, most of the time you drive on tarmac roads. When going back from monastery Werthenstein you go on a busy street. There are some uphills on every tour that might be strenuous!
This hotel ffers a perfect mix of old and new styles. The hotel was only recently achieved a 4*-rating and every room offers a wonderful view. You also benefit from high quality service no matter which category you stay in. Besides two restaurants you can also relax in a bar which belongs to the hotel

Arrival at Lucerne
Tour at Lake Lucerne, approx. 55km
In the morning the welcome briefing and the bike distribution take place. This tour leads over some smooth hills next to the lake from where you have wonderful views on Lake Lucerne and the famous mountain pasture Rigi. Green meadows and calm streets make the city seem very far away. After some kilometres you reach Küssnacht with its lake promenade. Continue to Weggis where the ship brings you to the other side of the lake. From here you cycle to the peninsula Horw, from where it is easy to cycle back to the city.
To the monastery Werthenstein, approx. 60km
From the town centre of Lucerne you go through a small village called Emmenbrücke and up to a small quiet hill, where you find many beautiful farm houses. There are some ups and downs in this part but you have a lovely view on the close mountain panorama. After some time you reach the monastery Werthenstein and from here you roll smoothly back to Lucerne.
To Sursee, approx. 65km
Today’s goal is the picturesque town Sursee situated on the shore of Lake Sempach. You cycle past small villages on calm streets and past farms and meadows until you reach the lake. Sursee is a perfect spot for a lunch break. Take your time to walk through the lovely town centre and try some Swiss specialities. The way back leads on the shore of the lake.
Visit Lake Zug, approx. 50km
The first part of this route is already known from the first days tour. As soon as you reach Küssnacht you make your way to Lake Zug and go on a boat tour to the city of Zug. From here you cycle along the shore until you reach a quiet path back to the city of Lucerne.
To castle Heidegg, approx. 60km
You go past Emmenbrücke to find Lake Baldegg, which is a wonderful nature sanctuary. Next to the lake you can visit castle Wildegg with its beautiful garden. You may visit this castle before you cycle one last time back to your hotel.
