Description
Medium-length, marked snowshoe route via Chübelialp to the mountain restaurant Lochstafel. It's worth taking a break at the cozy mountain ...
From Saanenmöser station, head up towards Hornberg to the Saanenwald Lodge. After crossing the ski slope, continue over a small bridge past the golf clubhouse. After about 2 km over the golf course, go right up to Chübelialp. Here you have nearly reached the maximum height, and the snow-covered alpine road leads moderately to Lochstafel. At the mountain restaurant Lochstafel, you can take a break and enjoy the sun on the terrace with refreshments in good weather. From Lochstafel, it is only downhill parallel to the toboggan run back to Saanenmöser.
The marked snowshoe route follows an easier trail parallel to the winter hiking path.
