Lauenensee (Lake Lauenen)

Highlight • Lake

In 1982, the Swiss dialect rock band sang "I gloub, i gangä no meh a Louenesee" and thus set a musical monument to the picturesque Lauenensee - there is hardly a Swiss who can not sing the song.

The Lauenensee lies in the midst of a wide Moorwiesen nature reserve and invites with various bathing and fire places, a restaurant and a rowboat rental to a longer stay.

You can find more information about Lake Lauenen at gstaad.ch/sommer/wandern/bergseen.html.

On the steep stretch between Lauenensee and Rohr, it is worthwhile to look at the sculpted wooden sculptures with good footwear. These are different animals. Native types and from animated films like "The Jungle Book" of Disney. Ideal for children to hike.
