Lake Schwarzsee

Highlight • Lake

The Schwarzsee is located in the Senseland in the canton of Fribourg. It is always very nice to be here. The lake has its own special charm that is difficult to describe.

The Hubel Rippa alpine hut is located at 1,141 meters and is just a stone's throw from the Schwarzsee. Accordingly, you can enjoy a wonderful view of the lake from the hut. Here you can fortify yourself with cold platters, ham, potato salad and meringues with cream.

Seeweidbach Waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

The waterfall is located about 200 meters behind the witch's house and the fire pit in the forest and can be reached with a short detour from the lake tour in about 10 minutes. The amount of water falling varies enormously, but of course the waterfall is most impressive after a heavy rainy day.

Schwarzsee (Black Lake)

Highlight • Lake

If the 4km loop around the lake is too short for you, here is an alternative. The lake tour can also be perfectly extended with the tour around Rohrmoos at the beginning of Schwarzsee. At the Gypsera car park, walk up the district street next to the SchwarzseeStärn restaurant where you have a perfect view over the lake. After 1.3 km (from Gypsera) at Schlossisboden turn right at the residential building, follow the yellow hiking trail markings towards the Burstera residential area. After Schlossisboden, the hiking trail is not suitable for strollers for about 200 meters (rough stones). You are on a dirt road for the next 400 meters until you reach the Burstera district. Once you have reached the quarter at the bottom, turn left along the 1.6 km long walk around Rohrmoos and along the Sense hiking trail back to the Gypsera car park. Very worthwhile additional loop with little fuss ;-)
There is also food and drink available directly along the route. The Jailhouse Rohr restaurant serves delicious burgers and more. Restaurant only open in the winter season (from the beginning of December to the end of March), the rest of the year rental premises.
At the health center there is the “fein & sein” where you are well served and have a beautiful terrace that invites you to linger.

Length of the additional loop 4.5 km with 123 meters in altitude. If you leave out the Rohrmoos and only do the part up to Schlossisboden then down to the Burstera district and back along the Sense, the additional loop is 2.8 km with 111 meters in altitude.

April 20, 2024,Morgenstund hat Schnee im Mund

After winter returned in the middle of the week as expected, I only stretched my legs for a short time today. I started at 3° degrees 🥶 and was a little sad about the warm days. Most of the fresh snow has already melted away, as the ground was already warm. According to the weather forecast, however, it will stay …

The Schwarzsee is nestled in the Freiburg foothills and, like the town, belongs to the German-speaking Sense district.
The town of Schwarzsee is a town in the municipality of Plaffeien.

We had planned a mountain hike today. There is a saying "there is no bad weather, only bad clothing", but after a long wait, it was still raining and then …
