UNESCO Biosphäre Entlebuch - A varied route through the Romoos Napf landscape.
The Chöhler-Route starts at the Romoos bus stop and follows the signs of the bike route 811 throughout. It leads uphill to Schwändi and then to Finsteregg. From there it goes downhill and uphill towards Schwäntegg. At Schmitteli you meet the starting route again, which then leads back via Studen to Romoos. You pass three charcoal burner sites; maybe a kiln is being built, fired, or dismantled, with some luck you can watch the charcoal burners at work.
From the charcoal burner site Pilgereggweid you can extend the route towards Bramboden up to Schüpfheim.

Attention, critical sections: Relatively steep and demanding descent from Finsteregg to Drachslis (Charrweg, used for forestry management, it is also part of the charcoal burner path Romoos to Bramboden), stream crossing before Drachslis. Short steep climb at Pulver to Grossegg (farm access road).
Wear the right protective gear, assess your skills properly, give priority to hikers, stay on the trail and close pasture fences! Refer to the Bike-Kodex Central Switzerland – that way you remain welcome on your mountain bike!
