Simmental house path (terrace path)

Past the Agensteinhaus (valley museum) up to the center of Erlenbach with its valuable building fabric from the 18th century and the fully painted medieval church. Valuable buildings can also be found on the ascent over the valley to Moos/Oberberg. Without significant elevation difference, you reach the hamlets Eschlen, Balzenberg, and Nidflue (to Därstetten 25 min), where further noteworthy houses testify to how perfectly the carpenters of past centuries mastered their craft. Wonderful views up and down the valley can be enjoyed from the Weissenburgberg (to Weissenburg 20 min), before crossing the deep trench of the Buuschebach at the site of the former Weissenburg baths. The hamlets Buusche, Büel and Wyssebach, located on a sunny terrace, feature further remarkable buildings. West of Oberwil, the Gasthof Hirschen, a former muleteer’s inn, invites you to a well-deserved rest. Via Zälg and Wüestenbach, you reach Eichstalden (to Boltigen 30 min), where one of the most beautifully painted houses of the Simmental can be found. Here the house path again describes a loop over the Adlemsried, located 100 m higher, and via Tubetal to Boltigen.
