Video of Lake Brienz Tour

This hiking tour without luggage is for energetic and enthusiastic hikers who would like to experience something out of the ordinary. It is also suitable for runners and Nordic walkers.
What strikes the visitor first is the colour of the lake. It changes according to wind and weather from blue to turquoise then to emerald green and is special in many ways from the different viewing points above the lake. Cosy villages, ruins, luxuriant mountain pastures and splendid forest line in path.
