B7 Upper Simmental Panorama Tour

04:17

42.6km

1,300m

Mountain biking

The Obersimmental Panorama Tour delivers what it promises: magnificent views in an idyllic landscape between Saanenland and Simmental. It's worth planning a full day for the 1,300-meter-high loop.

The view doesn't come entirely for free, but even on the first climb from Gstaad up the Hornfluh, you'll enjoy beautiful views…

Spärberwald & Holenstein (S2-S3)

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Slippery when wet... The roots, I mean. But otherwise, I would have rated this beautiful trail S1-S2. It's all rollable, with no major cliffs.

Annual tour with our best friends, and as always, it's a very funny affair, there's a lot of spotting, etc.

As far as biking is concerned, there are big differences, so..... women & men, but in the end we all got home safely.

Luke the youngest, hats off to what the technical driver can do.👍🤗

Enjoyed the nice weather again, easy tour over the Rüwlisen Pass to Hornberg.
We drove a few short trails down to the valley.

A wonderful evening round with buddy Hämpel. It has dried off a bit, but it's still slippery in the forest trails.

Clear. Everything is edible - but some maybe only once 🤪
Experienced another inspiration from @TinkaBuster today in the best mountain weather. 🤙🏻
The pass and lake are definitely worth another visit

Underway a bit later than yesterday and still too early for lunch on the Hornberg. We made do with a (Zfieriblätli), stayed longer and then still ate a steak 🥩 at 11:30 am. Rode a few trails down from the Hornberg and had dessert in Zweisimmen 🍦🍦🍦

The tour was originally planned differently, but due to forestry work, plans had to be changed.
So we headed over the Rüwlis Pass towards Hornberg. At an altitude of around 1,800 m, there was still snow, and the trail had only been opened on Friday.
There's actually a nice trail down from Hornberg, but I had to change my plans …

Set off around 3 p.m. with the thought that if I rode down the trails from Hornberg, I wouldn't encounter any hikers anymore, and apart from a small group, nobody else was out on the trail. Very pleasant temperatures with a bit of wind.
