#Overseas travel #Switzerland #Oeschinen Oeschinen Lake ⏰Opening hours: First gondola at 8:30, last gondola at 6:00 (Same for getting off, refer to SBB app) 📍Location address: Get off at Kandersteg Station and walk for 15-20 minutes to get on the gondola 🚗Parking available next to the gondola boarding area! ⭐️Please note that there is no internet at Oeschinen Lake⭐️ Oeschinen Lake is one of the beautiful lakes in Switzerland. If you are planning a trip to Switzerland, it is worth visiting from afar.

When you're in Switzerland, you can spend an entire day exploring Kandersteg and Lake Oeschinen. Upon reaching Kandersteg, we were already stunned by the beautiful scenery. Then we took a cable car up, and the view became even more breathtaking. We hiked around the lake and up the mountain for three hours. It was an intense hike, but the beauty was astonishing. The view of the lake from above is much better than from below. It's one of the best places to enjoy the Swiss scenery. If you're in good physical condition and able to hike, I highly recommend hiking around the lake. It's largely a peaceful hike where I could see the scenery I wanted, surrounded by glaciers, mountains, and pine forests—a heavenly experience. Most tourists just take the cable car up, snap a photo of the lake, and then head back. While that's fine, the hiking views are unparalleled. However, I must emphasize again that it's not suitable for those who are unwell or unable to walk down steep slopes without obstacles/railings.

Visiting Oeschinen Lake in Switzerland was an amazing experience filled with natural beauty. 🌲 This beautiful lake, located in the Alps, is characterized by its clear blue waters surrounded by green mountains. The breathtaking scenery surrounded me from all sides, and I enjoyed walking around the lake. 🌿 I rented a small boat to travel on the calm waters, which gave me the opportunity to enjoy tranquility and peace. 🚣♂️ I had a snack at a nearby restaurant while enjoying the open views of the lake and mountains. 🍃 The atmosphere was relaxing and refreshing, making me feel at ease and connected with nature. Visiting Oeschinen Lake was an unforgettable experience that combined adventure and natural beauty. 🌟

This is a must visit lake in Switzerland! It took only few hours to get there. There was no available cable car at that time as they are doing there maintenance thingy in preparation for the upcoming winter season. So plan ahead if you are not fund of hiking. But for me, It was so amazing! I enjoyed my time by admiring the beauty of God’s creation. Also , there is no entrance fee needed. You can bring your own mat and foods over there. See yah next time Oeschinensee 😍! #mountainview #switzerland #tripblazers

▶Location: 3718 Kandersteg, Switzerland ▶ When I think of Switzerland, swimming in a lake on a mountain seems really appealing. After hiking and sweating it out, let's take a dip in a lake, a natural swimming pool in the mountains! The heat will disappear in an instant and it's really cool. ✔There are no separate changing rooms, so I recommend wearing a swimsuit under your clothes. #EuropeanTravel #SwitzerlandTravel #OeschinenLake #LakeSwimming

There are two places you must visit when you go to Kandersteg: take the cable car up the mountain to play the slide, and Blausee The slide is really fun, 5 Swiss per trip, but the cable car going back and forth up the mountain is more expensive, 25 Swiss for a round trip ticket. You need to buy a round-trip bus ticket to Blausee, but it is really worth it! Blausee's boat is free to ride, just queue up. #goout

I can't believe that I'm in this scenery while looking at it and taking pictures. Even if it's not the destination, the journey itself is enjoyable. It's fun even if it rains. Just being there makes me feel grateful and positive. When will I ever see nature that I can't see in Korea again? Even if I travel alone, time flies when I take pictures.

#DecemberTravelSupportEvent #Switzerland #SwitzerlandTravel It was a trip to Switzerland where I couldn't put down my camera. Even when it rained, the sun was out, I was on the train, and at night, every moment was charming. I usually sleep when I'm on the train, but I couldn't sleep. It was so beautiful :) I went to Zermatt, Grindelwald, Interlaken, and Lucerne! Among them, Lake Oeschinen and Lake Thun were personally impressive. Of course, they were all beautiful, but I guess that's my ranking. I definitely want to come back with my family. That time, instead of staying at a hostel, I'll rent a traditional house!

#DecemberTravelSupportEvent #Oeschinen #SwitzerlandTravel #Switzerland Usually, Oeschinen Lake and Blausee Lake go together, but I only went to Oeschinen on this day. I went to Blausee Lake the other day, but Oeschinen is at sea level, so it feels like walking on top of a mountain range. I personally thought it was much more impactful. I think the mountain spirit will come out. Don't give up because the weather is bad! No one knows when the weather in Switzerland will change. Don't trust the weather until you go. It's random. I'm going to go in the summer and definitely do some trekking.

Everyone says that you must go to Jungfraujoch in Switzerland, you must stay in Grindelwald when visiting Jungfrau, and those who are knowledgeable will stay in Interlaken. If you have time, you can go to Lake Thun, or even go deeper into Lake Ernensee and the Blue Lagoon. During my free trip to Switzerland, I planned to stay in this area for four nights. There were too many people in Grindelwald and Interlaken, so the accommodation was relatively expensive and the space was relatively small. Moreover, on the streets of the town, you can mostly see houses and tourists, but no scenery. This time we settled in Apartment Terrasse in Kandersteg under Lake Ernense. Indoor 68M2, 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, dining kitchen, oversized balcony with mountain view, free garage parking, newly built apartment, central hot water, and washer and dryer. The equipment is very complete and the space is very spacious. You can stay in the B&B when the weather is bad. The cost is about 40% off that of an average hotel in Grindelwald. It is within walking distance to Lake Ernense and the Blue Lake area, and 40KM from Interlaken. For a self-driving car, it’s easy to get back and forth from Jungfraujoch in one day. This small village is 1,200 meters above sea level, has a relatively comfortable temperature, and has great views of the mountains. It's very close to Zermatt by train going south, which is perfect for connecting trips. Sometimes if you change your perspective, you may get more. #100 Ways to Travel

Personally, if I had to pick the best place in Switzerland, it would be Lake Oeschinen. If you are visiting Switzerland on a short trip, Lake Oeschinen is likely to be excluded due to time constraints. I was in Switzerland for over a week in mid-May, and since my trip wasn't too tight, I chose the place flexibly depending on the weather. In May, Switzerland was cold because it rained a lot. It was hot on a sunny day. It was raining that day, so I was looking for a place to go and ended up going to Lake Oeschinen. At first, I couldn't see anything because of the rain and clouds, so I just wanted to enjoy the silence and go, but soon after, the rain stopped and the sun came out! The sunlight and clouds reflecting on the emerald water were truly spectacular. In fact, there were no people because it was raining. I think the weather is really hard to predict. If I go back in the summer, I will definitely go trekking! The best. 🧚🏻♂️Oeschinensee Lake #December Travel Grant Event #Swiss Travel #Switzerland
