Hiking Path to Oeschinensee is a hiking area located in Kandersteg. Known for Good for picnics. a price range of $$.
It's beautiful place, I did the panorama loop hike, clockwise. Apart from a 15ish min steep ascent at the beginning the rest was easy. For me the hike is worth much more on a clear day or perhaps with some low clouds/fog mixed with sun. With the sky fully covered with clouds the lake loses its vivid colours.
The walks here are not the most difficult, but the shoes should be suitable for the mountains, trekking poles are desirable, but many people walk without them. The views here are incredible!
The trail is beautiful, and the reward of getting to see the lake is certainly worth it. While we were walking back, the trail was under construction, which made things a bit confusing. I wish the map was clearer so that it was easier to understand. However, I felt safe the whole time and never thought the detour route was dangerous. It is a good workout and will take a while.
