Hike along the Hardergrat
A magnificent and demanding hike along the Hardergrat in the Interlaken region via the Augstmatthorn. This ridge runs alongside Lake Brienz. We started the hike from Alp Lombach and climbed to the Augstmatthorn, the summit of this hike, from where we had a breathtaking view of Lake Brienz and the Hohgant. Finally, we headed back down along the ridge to the Harder Kulm. The final descent is by funicular.
A welcome surprise after the long hike: a dip in the Aare while waiting for the train.
It’s also possible to see ibex towards the Augstmatthorn, but unfortunately we didn’t see any this time; the weather was probably too hot! But we’ll be back next time.
