POI details
This hike takes you downhill from the picturesque Grächner Lake, past the village square and through the car-free part of the mountain community. It offers plenty of variety with views of the lake, playgrounds, traditional buildings, lush flower meadows, and the impressive mountain backdrop. After the Hotel Hannigalp, turn right and follow the somewhat steep earthy path along the lush meadows down to Niedergrächen. Here you cross the street and follow the trail to the Greechbiel.
