Lakeside Trail at Hallwilersee

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The whole lake circuit is great. Time flies by because there is always something to see and the whole route is so varied. We were particularly impressed by the section where the forest really reaches the lake shore. There is a great atmosphere there and it is nice and cool. The trees stand with their roots in the water. Some have already tipped into the lake and found new support there with their branches and formed new roots.

In September 2026, we tackled another section of it again. We started from Birrwil down by the lake, walked to Delphin and back to Birrwil by ship. It was wonderful and the ferry crossing only cost CHF 2.50 per person with a half-fare card. But then we had to pay our car's ransom, we had no choice and had to pay the ransom!!! My darling left a fitting comment.
Dreamlike beautiful area, beautiful hiking trails; a sinfully expensive parking garage at the harbor in Birrwil (5 hours CHF 35.00)
