Männlichen Royal Walk - a royal view in the Bernese Oberland

The short hike begins at the Männlichen mountain station and initially leads through the striking Königspforte. From here, the Royal Walk begins, a themed trail that leads to the summit of the Männlichen in about 40 minutes. Along the way, various stations accompany the path, imparting interesting facts about the mountains and the region in a playful way.

The path rises gently and leads ever higher across the open mountain landscape. As the altitude increases, the panorama becomes more impressive: opposite, the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau rise up, while the view also opens up into the Lauterbrunnental and across the Berner Oberland.

At the summit, the great highlight of the tour finally awaits: the crown-shaped viewing platform. It underscores the "royal" theme of the path and offers an impressive panoramic view of the surrounding mountain world. After a break at the summit, the path leads back to the mountain station. An easy hike for young and old without any dangerous sections.
