Bike & Hike Hirschberg

By bike from Bezau to Schnepfau and up to Schnepfegg, then along the farm track toward Hirschbergalpe up to the Hirschbergsattel. From there, the final 45 minutes on foot to the summit — on the Hirschberg, a magnificent view and pure relaxation await. The way back follows the same route, at an easy pace, where a well-earned ice cream sundae awaits as a reward at Berghaus Kanisfluh.

Start from Bezau in the saddle at an easy pace toward Schnepfau, and leave everyday life behind. By bike, climb briskly up to Schnepfegg and continue along the quiet farm track toward Hirschbergalpe, until you finally reach the Hirschbergsattel. Up to this point, the elevation gain seems to pass almost effortlessly.

At the Hirschbergsattel, leave your bike behind and continue on foot: the climb leads you up for the final 45 minutes, until the path opens up and you reach the summit. On the Hirschberg, a magnificent view, absolute stillness and pure relaxation await.

The way back follows the same route, at an easy pace. At Berghaus Kanisfluh, a well-earned ice cream sundae is already waiting as the perfect reward. Freshly refueled, continue back to Bezau at a relaxed pace.
