Description
The hike leads from Gstaad over Turbach and the Türli Pass to Lauenen and offers alpine views and varied landscapes.
From the Gstaad train station, you hike to Oberbort. From there, you reach Turbach via the high trail, or you take the PostBus from Gstaad train station to Turbach Post or Rotengraben. The hiking trail ascends steadily, passing Steineberg, Marchli, and onto Trüttlisberg. This is the transition from Turbach into the Lauenen valley. The steep descent on the east flank of the Lauenen valley down to Lauenen offers an unforgettable view. You return to Gstaad by PostBus.
