The 20 Most Amazing Peaks around Sachseln

The Planplatten are a striking vantage point above Meiringen in the Bernese Oberland, located at an elevation of 2,245 meters. They are the mountain destination of the cable car from Hasliberg Reuti via Bidmi, Mägisalp, and Käserstatt. Once at the top, a panoramic view opens up over the Central Swiss and Bernese Alps, all the way to Titlis, Sustenhorn, and Wetterhorn. Popular hikes include the Alpine Panorama Trail and the Ridge Trail toward Glogghüs. In winter, the area is part of the Hasliberg ski area.

The 1,897 m high Stanserhorn is a fantastic vantage point, easily accessible from Stans by historic funicular and the world's only CabriObahn. A roughly half-hour circular walk around and up to the summit offers magnificent views in all directions, including the communities on Lake Lucerne, the Engelberg Valley, and the Sarner Aa Valley, as well as the glaciated peaks of the Bernese Oberland (Eiger, Mönch, and the Wetterhorn Group to the south) and the Uri Alps (Titlis, Walenstöcke, and Ruchstock to the southeast). A restaurant with a large terrace invites you to linger and enjoy food and refreshments. The marmot enclosure and the steel viewing platform are sure to be of interest to children. The descents south to Wiesenberg and across the alpine pastures from Treichi to Wirzweli are particularly worthwhile in early summer. Then, in addition to the mountain panoramas, the blossoming alpine flora is captivating. The direct northward descent via Chälti, as well as the Kammweg and Blättli trails to Stans, is also very attractive despite its length, offering repeated magnificent views of Lake Lucerne, Mount Pilatus, Mount Bürgenstock, and Mount Rigi. Important: For the descent, you should purchase a boarding pass for a fixed travel time online in advance immediately after arriving on the CabriObahn, or if you chose to ascend on foot, to avoid long waits.

The Käserstatt mountain station at 1,840 m above sea level in the middle of the mountain panorama of the Haslital. The mountain restaurant is located right next to the 6-seater Wasserwendi gondola and is an ideal starting point for hikes and winter sports activities. Here you can enjoy regional specialties on the sun terrace of the fairly new mountain restaurant. We are here in winter. Käserstatt can also be reached by a longer hike from Wasserwendi or Hohfluh on foot via winter hiking trails. It serves as a hub for various ski slopes.

There is a 2.5 hour hike from Wirzwelli to the Stanserhorn with a fantastic panorama. The Wirzwelli cable car and the Stanserhorn cable cars are free for GA holders!

Fabulous views of Lake Brienz, Rothorn, the Bernese Alps and much more.

From the summit plateau you have a fantastic 360-degree view in all directions... the view of Lake Lucerne is amazing

The view from the terrace is heavenly... the cakes are worth it... but far too crowded...

Stanserhorn is a 1897 m high mountain in the canton of Nidwalden. The Stanserhorn is located between the towns of Stans, Ennetmoos, Kerns, Dallenwil and Oberdorf, south of Lake Lucerne. The Stanserhorn offers an outstanding view of ten Swiss lakes and 100 km of the Alps. You can particularly enjoy this 360-degree view on the 30-minute Stanserhorn circular trail. Why a place of power? At the highest point of the Stanserhorn (1898 m above sea level), bundled basic rays gather from three sides. The point with the maximum noticeable power effect can be found near the fireplace in a southeasterly direction.
