Today I just want to walk, nothing complicated and "grey" is OK too 😉

Lake Hallwil: A 22 km circuit, more touristy, with boat trips, lots of bathing spots & restaurants.

Lake Baldegg: Quieter, more natural, less accessible, beautiful view of the Alps.

Nice tour. Because of nature conservation, you cannot always walk directly along the lake. Beautiful view of the Alps and the first signs of spring are showing
