Winter closure:
The Gottardo hiking trail north is closed between Göschenen and Wassen during the winter months. On this section there are two bridges which are dismantled during the winter months to protect them from avalanches.
In winter, the Gottardo Hiking Trail North is only accessible from Wassen to Altdorf as long as there is no snow. The starting point in Wassen can be reached by bus of the Auto AG Uri every hour from the railway station Göschenen. The entire Gottardo hiking trail south can also be walked during the winter months.
