Along the lakes to the Stockhorn

The hike starts at the Chrindi middle station of the Stockhornbahn. The path first leads past the right side of the Hinderstockensee. It then becomes steeper as the trail winds through the forest to Oberstockenalp, where the mountain hut is open during the hiking season. Throughout this section, you can enjoy beautiful views down to the lake and its small island.

After the ascent, the next highlight follows: the Oberstockensee. This idyllic mountain lake is surrounded by steep alpine pastures and forest, making it a perfect spot for a break. The path then continues along the lake and through the varied mountain landscape.

From here, the final and steeper ascent to the Stockhorn begins. As you gain altitude, the views become increasingly impressive until you finally reach the summit. The Stockhorn is particularly known for its wide panorama: the view stretches across the Thunersee and the Swiss Mittelland to the Bernese Alps. A special highlight is the viewing platform with a glass floor. On the restaurant's roof terrace, comfortable benches invite you to enjoy some sun.
