The station Schwandegg is approached by the Niesenbahn on its way to the summit station. Especially for leisurely hikers and families, the middle station is perfect as a destination or as a starting point for a hike on the Niesen - just go up to the summit and hike from there across the meadows to the Schwandegg.

The timetables of the Niesenbahn can be found at niesen.ch.

The middle station we call Schwandegg, she is 1666 m high. On the Schwandegg you go naturally on foot, but you can then take the Niesen-Bahn back down on Mülenen 692 m high.
