Hohle Gasse, Sunken lane in Küssnacht, Switzerland
The sunken path stretches between Küssnacht and Immensee, featuring stone walls and natural vegetation along its winding route through the Swiss landscape.
Built as part of a medieval trade route connecting Zurich to Saint-Gotthard massif, the path gained recognition through its connection to William Tell's story.
The Tell Chapel, constructed in 1530 and modified in 1638, contains frescos depicting the legendary confrontation between William Tell and bailiff Gessler.
Visitors can access the lane through marked trails from Küssnacht or Immensee, with informational panels explaining the historical context along the path.
A dedicated foundation established in 1934 succeeded in preserving the original path by relocating modern traffic to a new road in 1937.
