About this trail

This is an easy route on the valley floor. It runs parallel to the river Lütschine and the railway Interlaken – Lauterbrunnen/Grindelwald. That makes this route quite interesting for train enthusiasts. Information boards about the railway and the local flora and fauna can be found along the route.

You can witness how the small rivers of the Schwarze Lütschine and the Weisse Lütschine merge into the Lütschine just before you reach the railway station of Zweilütschinen.

Page author: AnnikaSince early childhood I've been visiting Switzerland during my holidays and I just fell in love with the country. I spent many summers in the Bernese Oberland, which still feels like my second home, and then started to explore other areas. Traveling, hiking and photographing in the Swiss Alps are my absolute favorite activities. I'd be happy to personally help you plan your trip to Switzerland. Please see the link below.
