Balmfluh Castle Ruins

Highlight • Castle

The Balmfluh castle ruins are clearly visible from the trail. It's worth getting off your bike for a moment and taking a look at the old walls.

Balmfluechöpfli Summit

Highlight • Summit

The Balmfluhchöpfli can not be reached by car (luckily), so you do not walk around on your feet. The view is unique and impressive not only at the morning hour. …

Wonderful connection from the Herrenloch exit to the Balmfuechöpfli summit. The route is well marked with blue ribbons. Secured with chains, steps and rope.

Many thanks to the builders of the route: the BruKa team
Well done
