Landschaftspark Binntal -

Open
From Binn, you hike to Giessen and then continue to Imfeld. Partly along the asphalt road, you return to Binn.

North of Binn, the hiking trail begins. First passing through green meadows, then a short ascent over a paved road, the trail leads to the hamlet of Holzerhiischere and continues towards Imfeld. Always in sight is the beautiful Ofenhorn with a height of 3235 meters above sea level. It's also worth taking a look back: the Binntal with the mighty Breithorn in the background. The hamlet of Imfeld is worth seeing, as it has picturesque alleys and a small village square. Afterwards, the path leads on the other side of the stream, often along paved roads, passing by the campsite back to Binn.
