Lake Schwarzsee

Highlight • Lake

The Schwarzsee is located in the Senseland in the canton of Fribourg. It is always very nice to be here. The lake has its own special charm that is difficult to describe.

June 9, 2025,Breccaschlund Panoramaweg Schweiz Mobil 267

The weather is finally getting better! Today's hike starts at Riggisalp. You can reach it from Schwarzsee for 14 Swiss francs, saving you quite a bit of walking. The hike is varied – narrow paths, wide trails, wonderfully blooming alpine meadows, and barren rock formations.
...and lots of people😅. There are also several places to stop for refreshments along the …

This beautiful hike follows SwitzerlandMobility Trail 267 and is described in detail here: schweizmobil.ch/de/wanderland/route-267. I was traveling in the other direction (better more up than down 😉).
The Brecca Gorge is an extremely impressive, barren glacier landscape. The paths are partly easy, especially in the first half, and partly quite challenging. You definitely have to be sure-footed.
My first tour …

Fantastic view on the Schopfenspitz. 😍 Only the last few 100m before the summit are steep uphill. But it is worth it and you will be greeted by sheep shortly before the summit. 😁

Came home from work a little early to clear my head with a brisk walk about the past few days.

On the trail of his last breath. Memorial round for a kind-hearted friend who died of cardiac arrest last Saturday on a mountain hike in the Breccaschlund 🥺. Despite immediate resuscitation by companions, First Responder Plus and finally the Rega, …

Today I wanted to know more about what this Komoot movement time is all about. In addition to the smartphone recording, my Garmin Forerunner 935 GPS watch was also at the start. The plan was to hike a tour that I was very familiar with, as quickly as possible, without major obstacles, of course without breaks of any kind and …

May 16, 2025,Fürabe-Cher "home sweet home" / Schwarzsee FR

After-work tour through different seasons.

I set off at 4:30 a.m. from the Gypsera Schwarzsee parking lot with a moderate breeze. Luckily, the ambient temperature was quite high, otherwise I might have frozen a little in the cold wind. I was wearing shorts. On my tour through the Breccaschlund, I hiked back to the end of February. At least as …
