Ideal starting point for many activities in the Hallwilersee/Baldeggersee region. E.g. excursion to Beinwil, access to the Freiämterweg, scheduled boat Hallwilersee...

Located right next to the campsite and the swimming pool. Is a good starting point for a tour of the lake.

Müswangen is wonderfully situated below the Lindenberg and with a view of the Hallwilersee and the Baldeggersee. If you drove through on May 13th you can still see the beautiful jewelry across the street of the driveway procession.

The whole lake circuit is great. Time flies by because there is always something to see and the whole route is so varied. We were particularly impressed by the section where the forest really extends to the lake shore. There's a great atmosphere there and it's nice and cool. The trees stand with their roots in the water. Some of them have already dumped into the lake and found new hold with the branches and formed new roots. Beautiful in all seasons and can always be shortened by train or ship. The S-Bahn runs about once an hour and not quite as far as Hallwil Castle, you have to change to the bus. The castle can be reached more quickly on foot than waiting for the bus. If you want to take a short cut with the ship, be sure to follow the course plan, because the ship does not sail in all seasons and in all weather conditions. More at: schifffahrt-hallwilersee.ch

From here you can reach many beautiful destinations. Circumnavigation of Lake Hallwil approx. 22 kilometers. Or Baldeggersee to Hitzkirch. But also over the western hill Sempach, Suraee or Reinach (AG).

Rothenburg is a municipality in the constituency Hochdorf of the Swiss Canton of Lucerne. The municipality is part of the agglomeration of the city of Lucerne and west of the A2 for the most part industrial area. The southern boundary of the municipality to Emmen runs along the Hellbühler Rotbachs for a few kilometers, from there to the Rothenburgerwald and along the Rütibächli, which opens from the left into the Waldibach. This forms in a left loop the east and north border to the castle forest, whose southern part belongs to Rothenburg. In this forest, the municipal boundary leads to the north, but still turns west there to Sandblattenwald southwest of Rain. Then it goes southwest back to the industrial area on the A2. At the municipal border to Neuenkirch in the northwest lies the Bertiswilerwald. The municipality consists of the village north of the Hellbühler Rotbachs and the opening into it Butzibachs with different quarters. The largest of these is Bertiswil. In addition to the area west of the A2, there are only groups of houses and individual farms. Of the municipal area of 1552 ha, more than two thirds (67.8%) are used for agriculture. One sixth (16.6%) is covered by forest and woodland and 15.5% is settlement area. Rothenburg borders Emmen, Eschenbach LU, Neuenkirch and Rain. The first indirect mention was the community around 1130, as a document in a Walther von Rodemburg appears. The barons of Rothenburg were one of the most powerful and belligerent families in the region and maintained intensive hostility to Lucerne.
