Hiking
Melchsee Lake is idyllically situated at 1,920 meters above sea level near Melchsee-Frutt in the canton of Obwalden. Surrounded by majestic mountains, the clear mountain lake invites you to hike, fish, and relax. In summer, clouds and peaks are reflected in the water – a tranquil, picturesque spot in the Central Swiss Alps.
