The Axalp is located on a terrace high above Lake Brienz. Here is a family ski area, which is known for its relaxed operation. In the ski area you will find several cozy huts, where you can strengthen yourself - in the best case on the sun terrace.

August 17, 2025,Kombitour auf die Axalp und zum Hinterburgseeli

Today, I cycled from Brienzwiler to Axalp and then hiked to Hinterburgseeli. Then, I climbed steeply back up to Hilten for refreshments before returning to my bikes. On the way home, I stopped by the Griessbach Waterfalls. It was a truly beautiful first tour of Switzerland.

Short bike ride in the rain for a short climb to Axalp (quickly passing the Giessbach Falls, my goal being the climb to Axalp) and return.... but solo!!😄
