Due to forestry work, the Krafthweg is currently being rerouted via Finsterwald instead of Morgartenberg until the end of May 2025. The route is signposted accordingly. The diversion will extend the Krafthweg by around 15 minutes.

Rothenthurm has Krafth - a power-packed adventure trail with wonderful panoramic views.

Away from the crowds, an invigorating adventure trail leads through the forests and across the meadows of Rothenthurm. Various posts make the Rothenthurm Krafthweg an entertaining challenge for young and old.

The 3-hour power trail starts at the station and soon leads uphill towards Chli Morgartä. At Gärtenboden there is already a nice fireplace with a covered seating area. Once you have made the ascent to Morgartenberg, you can enjoy the unique view and a pleasant descent.

Stations invite you to strengthen yourself

Along the adventure trail you will find various posts that invite you to try out, compete and strengthen yourself. Test yourself on a fitness staircase with a chime, jump over the bear steps or balance on the slackline.

Power pack for the road

Only the right catering makes the Krafthweg an unforgettable experience. Enjoy our special Krafthpaket from the Kronenmetzg as a picnic on the way.
