Best Hikes to Augstmatthorn Summit
Tips
Habkern's own mountain, the Augstmatthorn, is a proud 2,136 meters high. You can either ascend to the summit from Harder Kulm or from Habkern. The paths are easy to see, but narrow and partially exposed. Especially in the summit area of the Augstmatthorn, freedom from vertigo and surefootedness are required. A large colony of ibex lives on the steep slopes of the Augsmatthorn and the entire Brienz ridge. Especially in the morning and in the evening you have a good chance to watch the shy mountain goats.

Great view of the lake, in the background the magnificent mountain backdrop. If you are lucky, you will see ibex. The tightrope walk is worth it !!

Tiring climb, but rewarding. At the summit you can also enter yourself in a logbook. It's on a post in a metal box.
