Walenpfad Engelberg – Bannalp
Recommended by Delia Durrer
As a ski racer, Delia Durrer loves the mountains - on skis in winter and on foot in summer. A classic among the high altitude trails: The Walenpfad from Engelberg Ristis to Brunnihütte and Bannalp. It offers spectacular views of the Walenstöcke. Lake Härzli is particularly attractive and invites you for a refreshing swim. Delia swears by the Kneipp baths around the lake - a real treat for tired hikers' feet!
