Brunnen:

 Brunnen is situated on the shores of Lake Lucerne with views of the Urnersee to the east, and across to the Bürgenstock and Gotthard Massif. Thanks to its central location amidst a diverse mountain and lakeside scenery, Brunnen is an ideal starting point for excursions in central Switzerland The holiday resort of Brunnen lies directly on beautiful Lake Lucerne, nestling between the Urmiberg and Fronalstock and facing the Rütli and Schillerstein mountains in the heart of William Tell country. The resort is well served by railway, bus, motorway and boat as well as by a little cableway up the Urmiberg, the eastern foothill of the Rigi. Brunnen enjoyed early prominence when, in 1865, King Ludwig II, a great admirer of William Tell, travelled to Brunnen. Regularly at midnight, he would have himself rowed out on the Urnersee to listen to alpine horn music, played at his command, against the backdrop of fairytale mountain scenery. Many writers and painters, including Schiller himself, Goethe and Spitteler, have also been much taken with Brunnen. Summer The fjord-like tips of the Urnersee promise lots sailing and swimming fun, while the surrounding countryside is an unforgettable cycling experience. There are rewarding excursions to Rigi and the Bürgenstock, the Muotathal with its cave, Treib-Seelisberg, the Fronalpstock, the Goldau zoo, and the towns of Schwyz, Zug, Lucerne and Altdorf. Keen walkers should include a few stages of the ‘Swiss Trail’ around the Urnersee: it begins at Rütli, the birthplace of the Federation of Swiss Cantons, and ends in Brunnen. There are scheduled boats at each of the towns along the trail for the return journey. Strong cyclists will enjoy the 40 km tour around Mythen. A wide range of accommodation, wellness and sports facilities await on the sunny terrace of Morschach above Brunnen. Have pure unadulterated fun in the whirlpool, wild-water stream, children’s pool with a 100-metre chute, and a large sports centre. The wellness oasis includes a Roman-Irish thermal bath, brine bath, invigorating herbal baths, massage, fitness and beauty centres
