Opis:
(from blog: www.suisu-ni-oide.ch)「山野草刈り人の山道」はウーリ州の伝統的な草刈り作業から名づけられた。何百年前から地元の農人は美味しい草を探しながら、危ないところまで登り、仕事中に死亡した人も結構いたらしい。現在もロファイエン山の山腹に行われている作業だ。「山野草刈り人の山道」はハイカー用の山道にもなっている。 昇天日に一人でルセルン湖の上のオーバーアクセンから「山野草刈り人の山道」を経てエッグベルゲまで歩いた。2019年に遅くまで雪が降っていたから、急なところにまだ結構な雪が残っており、危なかった。素晴らしいビューのコースだから、まだ行きたいと思おうが、今度は7月と9月の間に行くつもりだ。雪が解けているから「山野草刈り人の山道」が歩いて大丈夫だ。解けていないなら、危ないから道が閉まっている。それが知らなくて雪原が残っていても歩き出した・・・危なかった！念のため、ウーリ州の観光協会に連絡し、トレイルがオーペンかどうか確認した方がいい。For centuries, farmers in the Canton of Uri have harvested hay from the most remote spots in the mountains. The 'Wild Hay Maker Trail' takes its name from this rather risky hay making tradition, still practiced on the steep sides of Rophaien mountain, which occasionally results in fatal accidents. On Ascension Day, I walked from Oberaxen on the 'Wild Hay Maker Trail' to Eggberge. The nice cow herder in Franzenalp told me the path was still closed because of steep snow fields left by avalanches, but, oh well, I went anyway, and yes, the snow fields were quite steep and had me tensing up some, but I made it across safe and sound. The views across Lake Lucerne to the mountains surrounding Uri Rothorn are awesome, I'll totally go on this hike again, though later in the year next time. The 'Wild Hay Maker Trail' isn't safe to walk unless all the snow fields are melted. The path is marked 'closed' at the gondola stations until all snow is gone. I didn't know the trail was closed when I set off, I missed the sign at the gondola station... And indeed, I was faced with five steep steep snow fields on the trail, and crossing them was rather dangerous, so I recommend you contact the Uri Tourism Center to see if the path is open if you're thinking of doing this tour.
