This short but rewarding hike starts on Rigi Kulm, directly behind the depot at the end of the Rigi Railway tracks. The first section is the steepest, but easily doable, and leads to the Kulm hut. There the trail branches off and then runs on a level plain towards Rigi Staffel.
In the last third, you have the opportunity to take a detour to the covered fire place - the perfect place for a break with a panoramic view. The trail then continues to Rigi Staffel, where you can connect to the cogwheel trains to Goldau or Vitznau.
