Glaubenbielen - Höch Gumme - Brienzer Rothorn
The hike starts at the Postbus stop on the Glaubenbielenpass and initially leads along a wide path with views towards Sörenberg and the surrounding mountains. The trail climbs steadily over alpine pastures, with over 600 meters of altitude gain overcome in the first part of the tour. A section of the route passes through a steeper slope below rock faces. Finally, you reach the Höch Gumme at around 2,200 m a.s.l. The summit is the first major highlight of the hike and offers an impressive panoramic view. The cantonal border between Obwalden and Bern also runs here – a boundary that continues towards Brienzer Rothorn. After this, the hike becomes significantly more varied. The route now descends about 200 meters to the Eiseesattel. During the constant ups and downs, there are repeated glimpses of the turquoise-blue Brienzersee or across towards Sörenberg. From the Eiseesattel, the final ascent to the Brienzer Rothorn begins. At 2,348 m a.s.l., a spectacular panorama of the surrounding mountains awaits. The Rothorn is also a special geographical point, as the cantons of Lucerne, Bern, and Obwalden meet here.
