After arriving at the hut, continue ascending to the viewpoint with a bench

From Kandersteg, the trail first leads towards Oeschinensee. The old road is closed due to the risk of rockfall from Spitzen Stein. Soon the hut trail branches off and climbs steeply up via the Bärentritt. The path is well secured, and a beautiful traverse follows towards Biberg. The trail continues ascending up to the Doldenhornhütte. It is very worthwhile to hike for another half hour up to a beautiful viewpoint with a bench. There is a lovely view looking down onto Oeschinensee. Just a few minutes from the hut, there is a small natural pool in the stream. Unfortunately, the stream has dried up due to the dry weather. The beautifully situated Doldenhornhütte has been completely renovated. The lovely hut parlor and the new rooms are furnished with plenty of wood and are very cozy. The hut belongs to the SAC Sektion Emmental. A very pleasant stay with delicious food and friendly staff.
