ヴェエセンのおすすめ登山＆山歩きルート

Great views of many cantons

A fantastic view and a great starting point for hikes. The parking lot in the village center is highly recommended and not too expensive (ParkingPay app: 4.5 hours, approx. CHF 4.95).

After a steep climb from Ziegelbrücke, you come through the Alp to the ridge to Ferderi- and Plättlispitz, with fascinating views of the Nagelflufkette.

After an ascent of about 800 m from Ziegelbrücke you will find an idyllic place to rest with great views.

07_2025, the start of the tour to Federispitz is quite steep from here. Currently, the ground is very rutted and unstable due to logging. Going downhill is not recommended, especially in wet conditions.

The view of the lake is stunning.✨

The Speer via ferrata is rated B/C. It leads to the highest conglomerate or Nagelfluh mountain in Europe, the Speer. From the viewing platform there, you have a fantastic panoramic view. However, it's also quite crowded here, as an easy hiking trail leads up from the southeast. We found the via ferrata easier than advertised, and many Swiss climb it without safety equipment, which is also quite doable.

You can also stay overnight in the alpine hut. Contact information for reservations can be found on the alpine hut's website: https://www.alp-oberchaeseren.ch/zalp/
