Varied and incredibly beautiful
The weather once again showed its sunny side for the opening weekend. The current stage of the Raiffeisen Zuger Trophy, which starts in Herti, offers something for everyone. The even ascent from Schmittli to Zugerberg is also a pleasant challenge.
The short loop measures 2.1 kilometers. Those who complete the medium route run or walk 5.9 kilometers. It leads to Brüggli, along the lake to Choller and on the Cham cycle path back towards Herti. The long stage is really exciting. Instead of turning right in Choller, the route continues to Cham. In Cham, it's worth stopping at the Lorze under the Bärenbrücke bridge. The new 3D graffiti on the other side of the river will amaze anyone who sees it. Via Teuflibach, Eizmoos, Baregg - peppered with a few nice meters of altitude - the route leads via Bibersee in the direction of Steinhausen. After a short stretch through the Steinhausen forest down to Blickensdorf and along the Lorze back to the start and finish. These 16.8 kilometers are perfect for training for the half marathon in autumn.
Worth the effort
290 meters in altitude have to be overcome on the 3.3 km from Schmittli to Zugerberg. The path winds its way through the forest, steadily gaining altitude. Once you are over the mountain, you can enjoy the wonderful view of Zug. And that is worth the effort every time - especially at sunset.
Last workshop
The fifth and final participant event will take place on Monday, August 27, 2018. Meli Sport is offering interested parties the opportunity to test running shoes from On and Mizuno. Not just like that, but combined with running training. It is also worthwhile for experienced runners to refresh their running training skills. TOMTOM sports watches and Sensolar sun protection can also be tested. There is also a shopping voucher for a 20% discount from Meli Sport, free entry to the Migros fitness park and drinks from the fruit association and Knutwiler.
