The family hike starts from the Grimsel Hospiz with the Sidelhornbahn. This will take you to the foot of the Sidelhorn. Once you arrive at the mountain station, things really get going: you climb 300 meters up to the Cabin Hüsegghütte and then enjoy the rest of the family hike. The beautiful granite path offers breathtaking views of the surrounding mountain and granite landscape and, of course, the largest lake in the Grimsel area, Grimselsee. The hike continues past the Triebteseewli and via Bäregg finally down to the cozy Berghaus Oberaar. After a refreshment stop, take the Oberaarbahn back to the starting point.
