Schwandegg Station (Niesenbahn)

Highlight • Rest Area

The station Schwandegg is approached by the Niesenbahn on its way to the summit station. Especially for leisurely hikers and families, the middle station is perfect as a destination or as a starting point for a hike on the Niesen - just go up to the summit and hike from there across the meadows to the Schwandegg.

The timetables of the Niesenbahn can be found at niesen.ch.

Mülenen to Niesen Summit Hike

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Here, trail 3 and 5 are combined, the shortest ascent to the Niesen. The sneeze is ideal as a training tour, it is a total of 1600 meters to overcome. At the top you will find the modern furnished mountain house Niesen Kulm. The soup with the blue dried flowers is recommended, I have already enjoyed it often.

Official information about the ascent 5 h, descent 3 h 10.
