Wägital Lake

Highlight • Lake

The trail around the Wägitaler reservoir is also suitable for families with kids, strollers, etc. There are several Beiz along the way and thus also food and rest. Impressive are the recurring views of the surrounding mountains.
Particularly impressive are the reflections of the mountains in the lake, when it is calm ...

October 23, 2022,Wägitalersee Runde ab Innerthal
End of October, 22 degrees thanks to strong foehn wind.
The hike had been on the list for a while. The reservoir is 65 m deep. At the beginning goats with bells around their necks were waiting for us on the opposite side of the street.

Very beautiful landscape. Play of colors of green and blue with reflection in the lake. The hike is about two-thirds paved and fairly flat.

what a great day again 😍😍

After the Klöntalersee in the idyllic Klöntal in the canton of Glarus, today we went to its picturesque neighbor, the Wägitalersee in the Innerthal canton of Schwyz, so close to each other and yet separated by cantons 😎

Saturday excursion with two tours, as the lake itself would not be enough for me.
Here is the afternoon tour: komoot.com/de-de/tour/2047261336


Back on the cable car early, unfortunately I had to sit in Siebnen for 50 minutes with the connections until the hourly bus to Innerthal left, which I also arrived on at 9 a.m.

Today a hike around the Wägitaler See in the canton of Schwyz was planned. The weather god 💨 wasn't kind to us, we didn't let that deter us. Motto: "There is no bad weather, only inappropriate clothing" We had appropriate clothing, rain 🌧️, snow ❄️ and sun ☀️ as it is at this time of year... halfway through the tour …

Beautiful autumn hike for two around Lake Wägital (99% on the road, i.e. asphalt). A bit cloudy at first, but later quickly sunny and very nice and warm. There was a very light wind, so the surface of the lake wasn't completely smooth and the reflections in the water were unfortunately not ideal. But that was the only thing that …

We set off at 10:50 a.m. in sunny 14 degrees Celsius, with 90% hard surface on the lake road. The road is one-way the entire way and even passable by cars. Fortunately, there's little traffic today. The view of the lake and the mountains continues to be magnificent. The clouds increase towards the end, reaching 18 degrees Celsius. The lake …
