Hiking holidays Via Alpina Braunwald - Meiringen
Hiking: Via Alpina
Pristine Alps and wild passes
Arrival to Braunwald
Braunwald – Urnerboden
From sunny Braunwald over wooded rocky ridges to the largest Swiss alp with 1'200 cows. Open, flat and wild terrain along the Fätschbach stream to the Urnerboden.
Simple alps and mobile bee boxes on the Klausen pass, fascinating high trail with mountain panorama above the Schächen valley, then steeply down to the valley floor below.
Bus ride to Altdorf. Short hike to Attinghausen and by cable car up to the Brüsti. Continue over the panoramic Alp Grat to the historic Surenenpass. The rock bastions on the Brunnistock and the basin of the Blackenalp are impressive. A varied valley path leads to the monastery village of Engelberg.
Engelberg – Engstlenalp
The trail leads over two altitude steps up to the spectacularly situated Trübsee lake at the foot of the Titlis, and further over the Jochpass into the Bernese Oberland. The destination is Engstlenalp, an idyllic place of power with a lake, nostalgic hotel and thousands of alpine roses.
Engstlenalp – Meiringen
Through alpine flora to Tannalp with a cheese dairy, inn and lake. The ridge hike over the Balmeregghorn impresses with magnificent views of the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau. Dwarf Muggenstutz and a sculpture garden provide variety on the way to Meiringen. Individual departure after arrival in Meiringen.

Tour character
Especially the long last stage can be shortened by cable cars. The tour leads partly through very remote areas. Good basic condition, sure-footedness and experience in alpine hiking is required.
