The Fronalpstock is a peak that rises at 1921m altitude above Stoos, the car-free village of Muotatal in Canton Schwyz. It offers exceptional views of Lake Lucerne and the Alps.
The start of the chairlift to Fronalpstockp is just below the eminence where the small wooden church of Stoos stands.
The chairlift ride offers splendid views of spectacular scenery and, on reaching the top, you enjoy breathtaking panoramas of the Alps and Lake Lucerne with the Seelisberg and the legendary Rütli meadow, the birthplace of Switzerland, directly opposite.
For refreshments and meals, there is a restaurant with a large terrace at the end of the chairlift. From here, a path leads along the ridge to the summit where you find orientation tables describing what you see at the four cardinal points.
Hikers can then continue along the ridge path to the Klingenstock summit, which is a 2-hour walk away and where another chairlift leads down to Stoos.
