Description
Embedded in a wonderful mountain landscape lies the Sparenmoos cross-country ski trail. The area at the foot of the Hundsrügg above Zweisimmen has been the venue for the Swiss cross-country skiing championships several times. It consists of a varied mosaic of moors, meadows, and small woods. Due to its special beauty and the variety of moor types, the Sparenmoos-Nujeberg area, through which the trail is also groomed, is considered a moorland of national importance.
The trail on the snow-sure, sun-drenched high plateau captivates with a varied route through the gentle hilly landscape. It enchants with a fantastic view from the Stockhorn to Les Diablerets. From the start at the mountain hut Sparenmoos, it initially goes towards Site-Alp, from where the view over the Simmental opens. From there, one returns towards Sparenmoos. Those who want can conclude the cross-country skiing experience with a snack of regional products at the refreshment hut right at the finish.
