Reusch - Oldenhorn

Ascent: 5h30 / Descent: 3h30 

Physical 1700m + uphill hike, through varying landscapes from the green forests and waterfalls to the dry yellow rockis and the eternal snows of the glaciers.

A spruce forest and picturesque waterfalls line the mountain path from the Reusch valley station up to Oldenalp. After the wild and mineral-rich Oldental comes the Oldensattel with the Tsanfleuron Glacier nearby. On the steep final ascent of this demanding hike of over five hours, your gaze falls upon the eternal ice – and is magically drawn by its beauty. Upon reaching Oldenhorn (3,122 m), a spectacular panorama opens up with the 24 peaks over 4,000 meters of the impressive Alpine chain.
