Untersee - Alteiner waterfalls - Isel - Untersee by Fiend
October 12, 2025 · Community
Wunderschöne Wanderung! Die Strecke führt durch einen bezaubernden Wald. Der Fluss lädt zum verweilen und für die Kinder zum stauen ein. Die vier Feuerstellen sind sehr gut in stand gehalten und es hat immer genügende Feuerholz. Auch die beiden Wasserfälle sind eindrücklich und vor allem mit Kindern ein super Ziel vor Augen. Vielen Dank für den grandiosen Tipp!

Grosser Mythen am 25. Juni 2019 um 05:45 by Paula
September 29, 2025 · Community
Top Tour für Bergwanderer mit etwas mehr Ausdauer. Nach dem Gipfelsturm des Mythen geht es sehr schön auf dem Grat zum Furggelenstock. Früh losgehen lohnt sich, da der Aufstieg zum Mythen sehr steil, schmal und auf der Südseite ist, außerdem ist er (zu recht) sehr beliebt. Festes Schuhwerk dringend erforderlich. Der Mythen ist trotz der sehr guten Sicherung ernstzunehmen.
