Hike Meienberg-Blankenburg (Zweisimmen)

The hiking taxi takes you from Zweisimmen to Alp Meienberg. From Meienberg, the hiking trail leads in half an hour directly to the Seeberg lake and thus into the Diemtigtal Nature Park. From the lake, you follow a path with a barely noticeable incline to Alp Stierenberg, which you reach in half an hour. At the Stierenberg mountain restaurant, the trail changes to a narrow hiking path, on which you reach "Gubi", the highest point of your hike, after another half hour. From "Gubi", the winding, two-hour descent begins via "Hinder-Chumi", "Uf de Flüene" and finally through the "Sitewald" forest to Blankenburg and your destination station. Attention: "Stop on demand" applies here (to make the train stop, press the button on the station building).

A fine snack or a hearty lunch - a visit to the Stierenberg mountain restaurant is certainly worthwhile!

Motorway A6 Bern direction Zweisimmen, after the Simmenfluhtunnel follow the Simmentalstrasse for 30 km until Zweisimmen.
