Message from Alexandre Ferreira

One of the most iconic alpine lakes in Switzerland — Oeschinensee is known for its unreal turquoise color, dramatic cliffs, and glacier-fed water. A fairly easy access point makes it perfect for a relaxed adventure, photo session, or even a quick swim on a warm day.

🥾 Distance: 8 km round trip

⏱ Duration: ~3 hours

⬆️ Elevation gain: 520 m

💪 Difficulty: Easy to Moderate

🛶 Tip: You can rent a rowboat on the lake or hike above for next-level views. Come early or late in the day to avoid the crowds. One of the best places to chill, shoot, or picnic.
