The Heart Route leads through some of the loveliest parts of prealpine Switzerland. The secluded trails, far from traffic noise and all hustle and bustle, are particularly appealing for exploring by electric bike. The route offers heart-warming encounters with the countryside and people.

From the highlight of Einsiedeln, the route follows the north shore of Lake Sihl. After the steep climb to the highest point of the Heart Route and a fast descent to Lake Zurich, you reach the tranquillity of the Buechberg forest. Rapperswil welcomes travellers with its southern charm.

Directions & Parking facilities

Auf der A4a von Luzern oder Zürich die Ausfahrt «Zug/Baar» nehmen.

Es empfiehlt sich in einem der Parkhäuser der Stadt Zug zu parken; kostenpflichtig. Signalisationstafeln an den Verkehrsknoten zeigen die Anzahl freier Parkplätze und den Weg zu den Parkhäusern an.

Taking the train to Zug is a particularly attractive proposition, since it brings you to the heart of the town.
