    Hiking

    At both ends - in the Justistal and on the opposite side - entrance defense and armories were built, and cable cars were used to transport materials. The remains are evidence of this.

    Hiking

    Western entrance of the Schafloch Tunnel.
    Translated by
    The western entrance to the Schafloch is located slightly below the ridge and is easy to miss 👀 – pay attention to the trail markings! The entrance is via a short, steep path that can be slippery when wet ⚠️🥾. From here, the natural rock tunnel leads about 20m through the mountain – a fascinating experience 🪨⛰️.

    View: Right at the western portal, there is a magnificent view of Lake Thun and the Mittelland 🌄🌊 – be sure to pause for a moment and enjoy!
