Lake Oeschinen

Highlight • Lake

A stunningly beautiful lake, surrounded by several two- and three-thousand-meter peaks. The relatively easy climb makes this destination worthwhile for the whole family. Sturdy footwear is recommended. Restaurants and boat rentals are also available.

Gastertal panorama from Grüenewald

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

From Grüenewald, the Gastertal valley lies practically at your feet. Framed by striking peaks, you can see the Kander river winding its way through the valley. To the south, the steep north face of the Doldenhorn drops away, while to the west rises the Gross Lohner massif. Lined with light mountain forest, you'll be treated to breathtaking views at every turn.
