Description
Zweisimmen forms the gateway to the world-famous Gstaad-Saanenland region. Above the cozy village, on a terrace with several long hills, lies Sparenmoos. The scenic winter hike on the raised bog begins west of the Sparenmoos mountain house.
With a gentle ascent, the route heads towards Hüsliberg. This section is accompanied by spectacular views of the Simmental and the Vaud Alps. If you look closely during a break at the Hüsliberg alpine hut, you can even observe skiers rushing down the slope at Rinderberg. The hike now does anything but go downhill: with the massive Hundsrügg in sight, the path climbs to the turning point at Schiltenegg. In the Nüjeberg/Uf em Hubel area, it turns east - meadows, raised bog areas, and majestic fir trees in their winter coat now present themselves before our eyes. The path descends steeply for a section, then follows the forest edge and leads over an alpine path back to the starting point.
