From the train station, the path leads across the valley floor of Kandersteg in 10 - 15 minutes to the valley station of the Oeschinen gondola. With the modern gondola, you reach the mountain station Oeschinen (1682 m above sea level) in a few minutes. At the foot of the imposing Blüemlisalp massif, the comfortable path leads over the ski slopes through the forest hiking trail to the frozen Oeschinen Lake. With sufficiently thick ice cover, you might also meet an ice fisherman on the mountain lake. A little insider tip is a detour along the left lakeshore to the ice tower – nature as an artist!
Back the same way. The footpath from the lake to the village is closed in winter!

  • Approach

    By car via Spiez – Frutigen or the car train from Goppenstein to Kandersteg.

  • South of the Lötschberg, north of the Kandertal: For this train station between Brig (38 min) and Bern (61 min), there is an hourly service – an ideal basis for many excursions.

  • The destination is set, the parking spot as well – on this map vehicle drivers quickly and easily find the appropriate parking option in the Oberland community.

  • The signposts of winter hiking trails are pink. The interim markings are poles and have pink tips.

    Winter hiking trails can usually be walked safely. Beware of slipping on ice.

    Walking is at your own risk: Tourism Adelboden-Lenk-Kandersteg assumes no liability for the use of local routes.

  • Hat, gloves, sunglasses: Reliable equipment is especially important on winter paths. What dresses best? Ask our specialists in the many sports shops in the destination.

  • Nature and culture accompany every route – but which alpine topics are currently relevant in the Adelboden-Lenk-Kandersteg destination? Those who subscribe to our newsletter know what's happening along the way right now.
