Hiking

Hexenkessel, Dünde and Pochtenfall as well as the Griesschlucht: Already in the first few kilometers this tour more than lives up to its name. Then comes the Hotel Waldrand Pochtenalp, a cozy place for a long rest, before another waterfall and the Tschingelsee offer you refreshing perspectives.

Griesschlucht Gorge

Highlight • Gorge

Beautiful, small gorge near Griesalp with many waterfalls. The landscape is beautiful and invites you to linger. Accessible from Griesalp or by climbing up from Tschingelsee.

Nostalgiehotel Waldrand Pochtenalp

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Enjoy the sun, let your eyes wander over the mountains and lush green meadows and forget everyday life. Just the journey on the steepest post bus route in Europe is an experience. That is the Nostalgiehotel Waldrand on the Pochtenalp.

Pension Restaurant Goldern

Highlight • Mountain Hut

This guesthouse is really something special. You feel like you are staying in a museum. The whole interior has a special charm. Small but clean rooms, thick duvets (probably too warm in summer) and delicious food.

Beautiful, small waterfall on the side of the road. Particularly striking is the smooth, washed-out, brown rock over which the waterfall flows down.

Tschingelsee Floodplain

Highlight • Natural

The Tschingelsee is not a real lake, but more of a wide gravel bed that fills with water depending on the weather. It is really exciting to watch the stream find its way through the gravel. In between there are green islands of reeds and grass.
