The Schwarzsee is located in the Senseland in the canton of Fribourg. It is always very nice to be here. The lake has its own special charm that is difficult to describe.

This tour can also be shortened as desired, as you can always get on a TPF bus at a stop not far away to get back to the starting point. The …

Short version of my winter hike 🥶

Yes, it snowed – more than I had planned. Early this morning, I saw a photo of a friend's terrace in Schwarzsee on their social media. 35cm of fresh snow 😳 and my planned winter hike was supposed to go another 200 meters higher 🤔🫣 Right from the start in Zollhaus, I realized …
