    Mountaineering

    Varied tightrope walk, sometimes at the top of the ridge, sometimes on the side of the steep slope.

    Mountaineering

    The ridge path offers a secluded, panoramic high-altitude hike between Wasserngrat and Lauenenhore. The trail runs along a partly grassy, partly rocky ridge with magnificent views of the Saanenland, the Wildstrubel, the Wildhorn, and, on a clear day, even Mont Blanc.

    Characteristics:
    🔸 Difficulty: T2, in places T3
    🔸 Narrow, exposed, and partly unmarked
    🔸 Only for sure-footed and experienced hikers with a head for heights


    Highlights:
    ✅ Spectacular views down towards Lauenen & Gstaad
    ✅ Wild, rarely used trail – truly peaceful mountain scenery
    ✅ Exciting crossing to Lauenenhore or further to Giferspitz possible
