Directions
 

With an e-bike, the climb from Dallenwil to Wirzweli is child's play. If you want to save yourself the climb from Dallenwil to the Ächerlipass, take the aerial cableway to Wirzweli and from there a gentle incline to the Ächerlipass. On the Ächerlipass it is worth taking a 10-minute detour to the Holzwang Chapel at 1444 m above sea level. The inscription in the small church commemorates the fallen Nidwalden heroes during the French raid on the Ächerli in 1798. From here the view sweeps into the wide Obwaldnerland. Afterwards, you can either return directly to Dallenwil or via Ennetmoos - Stans back to Dallenwil.
