geography

course

The Chärstelenbach rises on the Hüfigletscher between Schärhorn and Gross Düssi near the border with the canton of Graubünden and shortly afterwards forms the Hüfisee . It now flows in a south-westerly direction, incorporating the Brunnibach and Etzlibach from the left , and shortly after the Chärstelenbach bridge of the railway, after around 12 kilometers , joins the Reuss at Amsteg .
