A hike to a waterfall... a varied hike though field and forest, over the waters of the Hauetenbach to the Erschwandenbach Falls. Beautiful views of Lake Brienz and the ridge of the Harder with the Augstmatthorn.
From the bus stop at the school, you head south through the old part of the village full of old wooden chalets (signpost Oberalmi). Above the village, a concrete bridge leads over the A8 motorway. Follow the panoramic path for 200 metres and then take the field path towards ‘Riedli Stockere’. Up in Riedli (635 m) you follow the signpost left to ‘Hauetenbach Stockern’, cross a wooden bridge to reach Stockern (670 m) and carry on towards Schollauenen Rinderwegli. Schollauenen (760 m) is the ‘high point’ of your hike. Carry on along the forestry road towards Erschwanden to the ‘Wasserfall’ signpost. Return to Bönigen by the same route or alongside the lake (road traffic).
Hiking time: 2 ½ - 3 h
Take the bus from Interlaken to busstop "Schulhaus Boningen".
