Wiriehorn snowshoe trail
Naturpark Diemtigtal - The route takes you from the Wiriehorn mountain station to Tubefärich: an ideal trip to leave everyday life far behind and fully enjoy nature.
The starting point of the snowshoe route, the Wiriehorn mountain station, can be easily reached with the 6-seat chairlift of the Wiriehornbahn. The path is marked from here, but you make the trail yourself with your snowshoes. The cool winter air and the deeply snow-covered alpine meadows and forests convey inner calm and distance from the hectic everyday life. Throughout the entire ascent, you have a magnificent view of the Wiriehorn, the Niedersimmental, the Stockhorn, and the Niesen range.
