The Eisee is embedded in a high valley surrounded by mountains between the 2348 m high Brienzer Rothorn in the west and the 2216 m high Arnihaggen in the east. The rest areas are ideal for a break when climbing from Schönenboden to the Rothorn. When the weather is calm (little wind), the surrounding mountains are fascinatingly reflected in the lake.

Dreamlike mountain lake that has no above-ground outflow and fits wonderfully into the landscape.

At the foot of the Brienzer Rothorn, the clear mountain lake sparkles in all colors when the weather is nice. A paradise at 1,900 meters above sea level. The Eisee is the perfect place to relax and enjoy nature to the fullest. While observing wild animals. While doing nothing. Or while fishing.

Good luck!
From mid-June to mid-October you can try your luck at fishing at the Eisee. The license can be purchased at the Eisee restaurant for CHF 37. Go fishing for rainbow and brown trout and char. And with a bit of luck, your lunch is guaranteed. If no fish bite or you are simply not a born fisherman, you don't have to miss out on your meal. Above the Eisee is the Berghaus with its large sun terrace.

The Berghaus Eisee
The terrace of the Berghaus offers a wonderful view of the mountain lake and the surrounding mountains. You will be spoiled with many culinary delicacies and good home cooking. You also have the option of staying overnight in the mountain house. Located in the middle of the ski area, the mountain house can only be reached by cable car in winter.

Very steep but easy to walk trail. I would therefore recommend sticks.
