    This car-free path follows a mountain stream from the quiet village of Adelboden through Oey and Raufmatte to the foot of the Engstligenalp, where foaming waters carve their dramatic way down into the valley. The return journey is made by bus.

  • Hohliebe - Unter dem Birg

    4 km · +700 m

    The route climbs steeply from Unter dem Birg (1399 m) through pastures and forests to the high point at Laueli (1660 m), a beautiful ridge walk above Adelboden. From there the path descends through the Hohliebe, passing several ravines before dropping toward the valley.

    The trail follows the Engstlige river past the Chälistein to the lower Engstligenfall, where the waterfall plunges dramatically down.

    3.2 km · +374 m

    A well-maintained mule track climbs through open terrain at the foot of the Bündihore toward the Engstligenalp, tracing the same route that cows, goats, and herdsmen have long taken on their alpine ascent.
