10 day Appenzell hut and Bernese Oberland?
-
Hello,
I am considering doing a 10 day combo of Appenzell hut to hut thru hike with a trip to Bern-Oberland for day hikes. I started a rough itinerary and would love your feedback:
day 1 (saturday)
arrive in Zurich 11:30am
Train to Appenzell
Overnight in Appenzell
day 2 (Sunday)
Hike 6 miles to Falensee/Bollenwees
overnight BerghausBollenwees
day 3 (Monday)
Hike to Berghaus Meglisalp via Zwinglipass & Rotsteinpass
overnight Berghaus Meglisalp
day 4 (Tuesday)
Hike Lisengrat to Santis to Berghaus Schaefer
Overnight Berghaus Schafer
day 5 (Wednesday)
Hike out early, lunch at Berghaus Aescher
We can take cable car if we are short on time
Afternoon train to Wengen
(is this possible? I haven’t checked train schedules)
Overnight in Wengen
day 6 (Thursday)
day hikes out of Wengen TBD
Overnight in Wengen
day 7 (Friday)
day hikes out of Wengen TBD
Overnight in Wengen
day 8 (saturday)
day hikes out of Wengen TBD
Overnight in Wengen
day 9 (Sunday)
train back to Zurich
overnight zurich
day 10 (Monday)
fly home
I could split up the 4 nights into 2 nights Wengen and 2 nights in another town but I am just not sure which one. Also open to suggestions for day hikes around Wengen/Grimewald area. We like to stay away from the crowds as much as possible, unless its something we absolutely shouldn’t miss.
Lastly, I would love a beautiful swimming destination like Valle Verzasca or Caumasee, but they don’t really fit into this trip (unless someone has a recommendation). Anywhere else we could go and will it be warmish enough? I don’t mind cold water. We are travelling first week of September.
Many thanks in advance!
Jill
