    I’ve been checking the webcams and it looks like the snow has melted and the chair lifts are running but I wanted to double check. We would be interested in doing the hike May 19th or May 20th. Wanted to get the expert local opinions if this is possible.

    if not we will plan to visit Mt. Rigi instead

    Thanks

    Hi Jessica,

    Welcome to MySwissAlps.

    The Stoos ridge hike starts from the Klingenstock chairlift and currently this is closed for maintenance. There is a big chance the lift may open during the weekend (mid-May) if good weather continues. You can check the latest operating info here: stoos-muotatal.ch/en/open-facilities/

    As an alternative, I recommend taking the chairlift up to Fronalpstock and hike the panorama trail at the top. You can find details about this trail here: http://www.stoos.ch/en/stories/panoramatrail

    Regards,

    Anna
