Snowshoeing
Away from everyday life
The snowy Alpine scenery, romantic valleys and wintry forests, the panoramic view of the Eiger, Moench and Jungfrau, all in the still of winter. A day off from everyday life can feel that good.
Roam the idyllic winter landscape, away from the large crowds Immerse yourself in the velvety peace and quiet of a winter’s day. Unwind and re-energize. And who knows, perhaps, in the remoteness of nature, one good idea or another will come to you, without you having to look for it.
There are two signposted snowshoeing tours to choose from in the Niederhorn region. This includes the longest signposted snowshoeing trail in the Canton of Berne.
Condition trails

Every Friday and Saturday evening, the Vorsass Mountain Restaurant offers guided snowshoeing tours. Tour leaders from the region take you with them on one-hour and two-hour snowshoeing tours through the fairytale landscape of a Niederhorn winter. Along the way, there is a little breather under the starlit sky, with home-made mulled wine. After the tour, a fine fondue awaits you in the Vorsass Mountain Restaurant, before you descend back into the valley with the Niederhorn Cable Car.
