Klöntalersee — Attraction in Glarus

This place is extraordinary not only in summer or autumn but as well during winter time. I have visited it on 1st official day of the spring 31.03.2021 but this is what I have experienced. The lake was frozen, lots of snow everywhere and no people at all. You can’t get there over week days during the winter time but only during weekend and still you can hardly meet anyone. It was so beautiful ... I wished I have taken snow shoes to walk on that huge amount of snow. You could only walk on main road paths as the rest is totally covered in huge amount of snow.

However the views from our hike were just amazing. And awesome feel of being surrounded by high peak mountains and stunning forest and then to be met by the Klöntalersee at the end was all worth it. It will definitely be a place I will be visiting in the summer to...

Around the lake there is a hiking trail with spectacularly beautiful stone beaches, barbecue areas and waterfalls. At both ends there are parking lots and guesthouses, at one is the very popular campsite with a great mountain panorama. Also a worthwhile...
