Practical information

The highlight of the activity: the hike leads over a broad, well-developed path past the flowering alpine meadows to Lake Bachalp. At the start of the hike, there is a short but steep ascent to the Gummihütte that must be tackled. Afterwards, you will be able to walk up to the blue jewel of the Bernese Alps. The sharp, jagged peaks of the Wetterhorn, Schreckhorn and Finsteraarhorn on the opposite side of the valley will impress you with their immense beauty. You will be able to take a well-deserved break in the middle of this untouched nature.

Distance: 5.9 km; Duration: 1:48 h; Ascent: 188 m; Descent: 188 m; Highest point: 2,280 m; Lowest point: 2,164 m
