Alpine summit route from Suldtal to the Morgenberghorn: The somewhat more challenging route rewards you with a breathtaking view of the lakes and the Bernese Alps.

Experienced mountain hikers will enjoy this hike. The route starts right away with a highlight: the Pochtenfall. From here, it goes steeply up to the Rengglipass. On the Renggli Alp, magnificent flower meadows allow for a break. Here you have to gather energy; the ascent to the Morgenberghorn is even more strenuous. Once at the top, the breathtaking panorama makes up for the exertion: the view includes the impressive Bernese 4,000-meter peaks and stretches beyond the flat Mittelland to the Jura. Far below in the valley glistens the deep blue Lake Thun.

Turning away from this view is not easy, but the descent demands utmost concentration again. The path to Brunni is steep and includes two chain-secured passages. Via Brunni, it goes through the rear Leimerwald back to the Restaurant Gasthaus Suld.
