A long and demanding route that becomes an unforgettable experience under good conditions – dry terrain and stable weather. The narrow ridges, steep ascents, and exposed sections, especially around Tannhorn and Augstmatthorn, require stamina, surefootedness, and full concentration, but reward with breathtaking panoramic views of Lake Brienz and the Bernese Alps.
Those who take on this challenge should bring enough time, endurance, and respect for alpine conditions – then the route becomes a real highlight in the Bernese Oberland.
Author’s recommendation
- High chance of seeing ibex populations
- Strategically smarter to start from Brienzer Rothorn, as the strenuous part including the key section is relatively early on
