The hike was incredible, so worth it, for me is a medium level, but for my friend it was a difficult one,so it depends on your conditions, we took 3 hours to do the whole thing. First you take a Gondel (15CHF both ways), then we took the tunnel, then you go up for 1 hour (a little steep), before you get to the hut, there is another trail to your left there you find the view point from where I took the first 2 photos, it's breathtaking, you go back to the trail and go to the hut, from there you will find the signal to continue your hike to get down to the gondel.

The trail very well marked , its better to have hiking boots because its a...

Absolutely gorgeous lake with very interesting shape, bright blue make it look like a gigantic gem, and the surrounding mountains just add to its beauty even more! There is a dam built on it a tunnel that goes directly to the bahn and a great trail with breathtaking view to admire, we went on the hicking trail and it was very cool!

Also please visit the restaurant /bar/room for a drink or snack! The...

Ausflug auf die Muttseehütte:

Mein Tipps:

Auto kann man bei der Luftseinbahn Tierfehd - Kalktrittli parkieren.

Mit der Bahn auf Kalktrittli fahren 10min. Von dort aus kann man 2 Wege auf die Muttseehütte nehmen.

Variante 1 Durch den Tunnel zum Limmernsee Staudamm ca. 3.5km 30-45min es ist ziemlich Kalt im Tunnel. Von dort aus hat man ca. 1.5h/2h zur Muttseehütte. Bergwanderweg

Variante 2 direkt vom Kalktrittli auf die Muttseehütte, dafür braucht man 2.30h - 3h dieser Weg ist ziemlich Steil am Anfang. Bergwanderweg

Man kann dann bequem von der Muttseehütte den Muttseestaudamm (längester der Schweiz und höchster Europas) anschauen gehen. Zeit ca 30min

Von der Muttseehütte abwärts gibt es 2 Wanderwege zwischen 1.5h / 2h bis zur Seilbahn

Fragt vorher noch bei den Hüttenwarten nach ob die Wege offen sind falls sie mal gesperrt wurden, es kann einige Zeit dauern bis alle Schilder weg sind auf den Wegen.
