After a leisurely ascent, you reach the back part of the village, passing through the camping site of the scout center to the portal of the Lötschberg tunnel. At the end of this 5 km round, an easy descent leads back to the starting point. Thanks to gentle climbs and descents, the time in between is varied.

Approach

By car via Spiez - Frutigen or with the car train from Goppenstein to Kandersteg.

Public Transport

Arrival at Kandersteg station

South of Lötschberg, north of Kandertal: this station between Brig (38 min) and Bern (61 min) operates on an hourly schedule – an ideal base for many excursions.

Parking

Safety Instructions

Please note that you are fundamentally traveling at your own risk! The trail association does not maintain its own rescue system and does not perform a final piste check like in alpine ski areas. Also pay attention to the SOS information signs and the board of conduct at the cross-country center.

Equipment

Hat, gloves, sunglasses: reliable equipment is especially important on the trails. What should you wear? Ask our specialists in the numerous sports shops in the destination.

Tips

Whether with classic technique or skating: cross-country skiing is healthy and fun!
