Arrival- Departure
Check-in is possible from 16:00
After booking, we will send you a detailed factsheet with all the important information and the number code for your overnight stay in the glass igloo.
Check-out must be no later than 09:30 hrs.
We ask you to close all windows and the door and to leave the accommodation as you would like to find it.
The Furgelen is located at 1200 metres above sea level, directly above Isenthal with a fantastic view of Lake Lucerne.
The glass igloo can only be reached on foot or comfortably by cable car. There is no public road.
The cable car station is just above the post bus stop "Isenthal, Weid-Furggelen". Free parking is also available at the post bus stop.
From the post bus stop, the glass igloo can be reached via two different hiking trails. We recommend choosing the wonderful "Urner Mundartweg" (Uri dialect trail) for the journey there and back.
If you want to travel by cable car, please arrange with the Bissig family the evening before your arrival what time you want to use the cable car. As the cable car is privately operated, the service must be arranged in advance.
