Description
The starting point is the Restaurant Seeblick. Why not start the hike with a strengthening coffee and croissant? Then the hike begins directly with the lakeside circular route at Burgäschisee. Swimming in the lake is allowed. From May to October, fishing is also permitted, but only with a daily license. The shore of Burgäschisee is covered with wild plants, including sundew and bilberries. In early summer, white water lilies adorn the water surface. So you can take one or two breaks right at the start.
Did you know? Between 1941 and 1943, Burgäschisee was lowered by two meters to gain agricultural land. Extensive lakeshore settlements appeared on the drained shore areas. The Neolithic settlements have been part of the UNESCO World Heritage since June 27, 2011. Our ancestors already knew back then where it's nice to live.
