Plan around: Both passes close in winter (Glaubenbielen from Mörlialp, Glaubenberg from Langis). Glaubenbielen: coaches/heavy vehicles in alternating hourly slots.
Route line is approximate. Plan with a navigation app before you ride.
Why it is a next step
Not a first ride. The Glaubenbielen Panoramastrasse reaches 12% and is narrow enough that buses run in alternating hourly windows. The Glaubenberg has many cattle grids, and cows may be on the road on the Obwalden side. The reward is two quiet moorland passes and Lake Sarnen in one loop.
