Who has not enough - like me - takes the footpath to the valley station. Stotzig and gravel stones accompany you down to the bottom.

Glattalpsee

Highlight • Lake

Watch out for snow on the shady (right) side of the lake; this can be a bit slippery even in July, but the views around the lake make it worthwhile. …

For the descent I personally like to use the gondola. At the Glattalp it can be nice weather and on the weekends with a gondola capacity of only 8 people …

A completely inappropriate title for this highlight! Quite a distance from the town of Schwyz, we find ourselves here in the Bisistal valley, on the way to Glattalpsee.

I was chauffeured by minibus from Muotathal to Bisisthal to the Sahli/Glattalp cable car stop. From now on we went steadily uphill on an initially wide road. The road later became a mountain path, but it was never exposed. After 4.5 km I reached 700 m up to the Glattalp. The view of the opposite side of the valley is …

A hike 🥾 on the Glattalp, 1869 m above the Bisistahl.
I take the eighth-level gondola 🚠 from Sali up to Glattalp. If the weather is nice ☀️, I hike to Glattsee to walk around it and enjoy the lake and the surrounding rocky, high mountains.
The Glattalpsee is located on the Glattalp in the canton of Schwyz, and the …

This is really only for very fit hikers who are used to walking up gradients of over 20%. Everyone else, take the gondola?

The bus took us to the end of the Bisi valley.

From there, we climbed up a well-trodden path across alpine pastures. The Mütschen towered to our left.

We stopped at the Glattalp, circled the lake, and took the small cable car back down into the valley.

Great hiking tour in this weather 🌞🌞
You can leave the bike at home, too difficult from the valley up and down....
The recording (tour) of the bike from further down the Pragelstrasse junction up to the Glattalpbahn is also not recommendable in my opinion and I deleted it again.
Greeting Roman and in beautiful above 👍🌞😘

Hike done with Andrè. We did the altitude gain with the Sahli cable car. Enjoyed the loop around the Glattalpsee with an extended break and the view. Then walked down towards the valley.

I had been thinking about the Ortstock for a while. Unfortunately, all the apps predicted a thunderstorm in the afternoon. So I only planned a hike to the lake with light luggage.
The thunderstorm didn't come, I could have gone to the summit, but I had started too late and had no headlamp, no power bank and not enough water …
