Well, you can either walk, bike up there or just pay CHFr 20 per person (no reductions for Halb Tax) for a return on the small gondola, maximum 6 people, we did! You can see on the ride up that you are in for a...lovely feast for the eyes with some spectacular scenery over the Urner See (extension to Lake Lucerne). The gondola is scheduled to leave every half hour but if there are at least 4 persons waiting it will leave on demand. The gondola leaves from the bus stop (Urmiberg) on the main Brunnen Gersau road and arrives almost in the restaurant, so there is not much walking except there are some steps to get into the restaurant which could be tricky. If you wish you can walk further for more spectacular views of the Mythen but it is not necessary. The restaurant itself has indoor and outdoor sitting, quite a few tables with brilliant positions looking out. We went on a lovely Wednesday lunchtime which promised full sun and did not need to book, but it wasn't school holidays. The gondola is also reachable by walking from Brunnen but a bus from Brunnen station saves time if you are just on a day visit. The menu is not vast, you would not expect that in such a restaurant but serves local food very well. There is quite a selection of wine, beer and ice creams. The grilled meat was delicious and the Bergkäse (mountain cheese) is a perfect companion to the Schwyz red wine. The only downside for me was that all the cakes had been eaten in the morning by the walkers!! It was not my first visit to this restaurant but my first since the gondola was saved from extinction a few years ago. Definitely recommended. Well worth the effort and planning to go for lunch, even if you don't walk further and just eat/drink and come back down. I would just check out the weather before visiting, and please note that Mondays are rest days.
true, there are easier ways to get there than the 2 hours walk uphill why don t you try the cable car? but both, hiker and tourist will be overwhelmed by the stunning view onto the lake of lucerne and into the alps...as well. the cuisine is fresh and sourced locally with main courses costing between chf 15 to 20. the hosting couple is young, cheerful and dedicated for a year now to turn this place into a must see and according to tripadvisors ranking they have fared well. for the not faint hearted there s a 10 ' stroll onto 'stockflue ' (light climbing involved) where the view opens up towards schwyz and the majestic 'mythen mountain range '. definitely a recommendation!
I can't even begin to describe the beauty of this place! It's a 20 franc cable car ride to the top, unless you're a strong hiker. But SO worth the price of admission on a clear day. The wait staff was super friendly, spoke enough...English that with my pitiful knowledge of Swiss German, we could converse. The bratwurst was delectable. And our dog was welcomed! But all of this could have been 1 star, and I'd still give the place 4 just because of the view. Wow. Just wow.
We were a group of 4 and had a reservation, which is absolutely recommended. Make sure you have to take the small cable car to get there or go up steeply from 1.5 to 2 hours. We choose the menu of the day which was great and at a very reasonable price. The service was excellent and warm. A fantastic view is the top of the visit.
Fröhliche, nette Bedienung , sehr gutes Essen und dazu noch mit traumhafter Aussicht auf See und die umliegenden Berge.
