As if you were in an alpine fairy tale: on this trail runners can follow moss-covered forest paths and take gently curved bends under their feet. Against the flow of the babbling mountain stream, this round leads to the thundering Engstligen waterfall – the 600-meter-high natural spectacle alone is worth the trip. But also a rustic covered wooden bridge and the wild mountain landscape on the banks make the route a classic run in Adelboden.
Public Transport
The bus station in the village center connects the entire Engstlig valley. The mountain village is only 90 minutes from the capital.
Parking
This map helps drivers quickly find suitable parking options in the Oberland community. So then: engine off, hiking boots on!
Directions
Always upstream: Starting from Adelboden Oey, this route follows the Engstlige river and passes rustic wooden chalets and farms. Halfway along the route, a stop at the Engstligen waterfall is almost a must. A few meters further down, there is also a good view of the spectacle from a bench. If you have absorbed enough of the concentrated power of nature, you take the loop back. A secure hiking trail then leads you out of the forest again.
Safety Instructions
The more extreme the conditions, the more important the equipment. Longer routes in the mountains require, for example, weatherproof clothing and a small running backpack with provisions.
