From Schangnau to Trubschachen via Wachthubel

The hike starts at the bus stop Schangnau, Post, leads uphill via alpine roads and meadows and offers an impressive view of the Hohgant, the "crown of the Emmental". After a varied ascent through forests, past a Nagelfluh wall, you reach the Wachthubel (1,414 m above sea level), which rewards you with a magnificent 360° panorama over the Bernese Alps, the Emmental and the Entlebuch. The descent follows the Napfbergland border trail, passes the UNESCO Biosphere Entlebuch and allows you to stop off at the Grosshorben farm, where a fridge with drinks and ice cream is available for refreshments. Along the way, you pass the Hinder Rämisgummen farm, once owned by the legendary Bernese aristocrat Louise Elisabeth de Meuron, and have the opportunity to take a detour to the Erika mountain restaurant. After a gentle descent along the Ilfis, the route leads to Trubschachen railroad station, where a visit to the Kambly factory is the perfect way to end the tour.
