What defines riding in Uri?

Uri stretches along the Reuss valley from Lake Lucerne to the St. Gotthard Pass, framed by dramatic high-alpine terrain. The historic Rütli meadow lies within the canton, and William Tell, Switzerland's most celebrated folk hero, is said to have hailed from here. Winters are severe by Alpine standards, yet summer days can be warm enough for swimming in Lake Lucerne.
