Summit hike Ochsen, 2188 m.a.s.l.

Naturpark Gantrisch -

The hike to the highest mountain in the Gantrisch Nature Park offers wonderful views from the Mittelland to the Oberland and the Fribourg Alps.

Pass the disused sulphur spring and climb up to the Lauigrat, which you follow to the saddle after the Huerlisboden. The mountain trail crosses the south-western flank towards Alpiglegalm. Now the view also opens up to the Oberland mountains. Via the south ridge, you finally reach the summit of the Ochsens, quite exposed. The highest point of the Gantrisch Nature Park offers a magnificent panoramic view of the Gantrisch chain from the Stockhorn to the Fribourg Alps and, of course, out into the Mittelland or towards the Oberland. Even Mont Blanc can be spotted in good weather. The descent is via the same route to the Schwefelbergbad post bus station.
