The trail

Swiss Path (German: Weg der Schweiz) is a 35-kilometre commemorative hiking trail in central Switzerland, created in 1991 to mark the 700th anniversary of the Federal Charter of 1291, also known as the Rütli Oath. The trail begins on the Rütli Meadow above Lake Uri, a southern arm of Lake Lucerne, traditionally regarded as the site where three peasant leaders swore a mutual defence pact that laid the foundation for the Swiss Confederation.
