View of Oeschinensee and surrounding mountains

Highlight • Viewpoint

One of my favorite places in the Berneroberland, the ascent to Lake Oeschinen can be done on foot or by cable car. The lake is SUPERB!

Kandersteg village

Highlight • Settlement

Tranquil village that is easy to hike through (sometimes it's not up and down). There are places to stop and stay overnight as well as a beautiful church.
