Hike from Weglosen to Roggenstock with my wife. The weather was really perfect. The botanical highlights can be seen on the attached photos. A lot of snow has melted since my last hike here 9 days ago.

Since the weather forecast was better for the morning than for the afternoon, I chose to do a relatively quick and early morning hike to Zindlenspitz. Start at Wägitalersee at 6:15 AM. I followed the white-red-white marked trail past Alp Zindlen. There are only two snowfields you need to cross on the way, but neither is in the...

Hike from Wägitalersee to Schwialppass on the wrw marked trail together with my wife. Just before Schwialppass a couple of snowfields still block the trail, but they can easily be bypassed or crossed. It was mostly cloudy, but apart from a few raindrops it remained dry. We saw many different flowers, so it was kind of a botanical...

Nice morning hike to the summit of Brüschstockbügel together with my oldest son. The weather was perfect in the morning, but shortly before noon a few clouds moved in. Lunch at the restaurant in Innerthal after the hike.

Die heutige Wanderung ging von Innerthal am Wägitalersee hoch auf den Brüschstockbügel (1488 m). Start in Innerthal kurz vor 10 Uhr bei einer Temperatur von -4°C. Dazu gab es aber noch eine mässige Bise und leichter Schneefall. In Innerthal lag etwa 5 cm Neuschnee. Weiter oben gab es dann 5-10 cm, und kurz vor dem Gipfel etwa...

Nice afternoon hike to the summit of Brüschstockbügel together with my wife. The weather was perfect with mild temperatures. Hardly any snow on the way. This was my 6th visit to Brüschstockbügel.

Nice walk on Etzel with spring-like temperatures (15°C). Not that many people out since all restaurants are closed due to the corona virus emergency situation. But still important to get out once in a while to get some fresh air. I went alone.

Nice hike in perfect weather! Only few people in the area. Met a group of five hikers at the summit of Schiberg, and one lady at the summit of Plattenberg. I went on this hike alone. Main difficulties: Ascent Schiberg from Hohfläschen via Tschingel: T3 Descent Schiberg on the marked trail with one small but tricky...

Nice hike to Brüschstockbügel with my two sons. We enjoyed the nice weather, and there were hardly any people around. Lunch break at Schwarzenegg during the descent. Since it was an easy hike, we only used sneakers.

Nice hike from Innerthal to Bockmattlistock (1931 m). New personal record for the ascent: 1h 40 min. Mainly due to the lightweight approach with waterproof jogging shoes instead of hiking boots. Lunch break a little bit below Bockmattlihütte during the descent.

Nice hike from Wägitalersee to Nüssen together with my two sons. Warm weather for mid April. Lunch at the cross on Nüssen. Great views to the surrounding mountains, and to Wägitalersee. Same way back again.

Start at Wägitalersee at 9:00 AM. I followed the white-red-white marked trail past Alp Zindlen. There are a few snowfields you need to cross on the way, but none are in the steep parts of the hike. With a reasonably good pace I needed 2 hours 15 min to reach the summit. I spent nearly 30 min at the summit just enjoying the...

Hike from the southern shore of Wägitalersee up to Lauibüel together with my two sons. Nice and sunny weather. We hiked past Abern Oberalp and Rinderweid. Lunch a little bit above Lauibüel. Descent on the same way. Only few people in the area.

Hike from Allenwinden (near Schindellegi) up to Rossberg and Wildspitz together with my two sons. Cloudy and foggy on the way up, but no rain. Lunch at a bench near the top. Descent on the same way. The trail was quite muddy between Rossberg and Wildspitz. During the descent the weather improved with a mix of sun and clouds.

Nice hike from Weglosen up to Fidisberg together with my two sons. It was partially cloudy weather, but the sun came through every now and then. We mostly followed the forest road and/or the wrw marked hiking trail, except for the last part up to Fidisberg where there is no marked trail. Lunch at the summit with a nice view to...

Schöne Wanderung auf den Schiberg bei etwas erschwerten Bedingungen wegen dem Schnee. In der unteren Hälfte war die Spur am Morgen eisig und manchmal ging es deshalb zwei Schritte vorwärts und einen zurück. Der steile Schlussaufstieg von der Furgge bis zum Gipfel würde ich heute mit T4- bewerten, denn ich musste doch an...

Afternoon snowshoe hike to Brüschstockbügel (1488 m) in foggy weather. The sun did not come out as I had hoped for, but it was still good to get outside. Only few people in the area, but according to the tracks, Brüschstockbügel had been reached both by skis and snowshoes earlier in the day. About half a meter of snow at the...

Start um 9:40 in Unteriberg bei etwa -4°C. Es gibt eine gut ausgeschilderte und gut markierte Schneeschuh Route bis zum Gipfel Spital. Im oberen Teil verläuft diese Route durch eine Wildruhezone, d.h. unbedingt die Markierungen folgen. Es waren heute schon ein paar Schneeschuhwanderer und Skitourenfahrer unterwegs, aber die...

Schöne und relativ einfache Schneeschuhtour von Innerthal hoch zur Bockmattlihütte. Es waren nur wenige Leute in der Gegend unterwegs. Hohe Bewölkung und viel Sahara-Staub in der Luft. Schwierigkeit WT3 nur für den Aufstieg von Schwarzenegghöchi zur Bockmattlihütte, sonst einfacher. Zeitbedarf: Aufstieg: 2 h Abstieg:...

Schneeschuhwanderung mit Thomas bei perfektem Wetter. Blauer Himmel und kaum Wind. Wir sind am südlichen Ende vom Wägitalersee gestartet, und stiegen via Abern Oberalp hoch nach Rederten. Schöne Mittagspause bei einer Scheune auf etwa 1550 m ü. M. Abstieg auf dem gleichen Weg. Am Morgen war der Schnee noch hart gefroren, aber...
