From Riggisalp, take the «Höhenweg» towards la Brecca, one of the most beautiful alpine valleys, carved out by the glaciers tens of thousands of years ago.
From Schwarzsee (1047 m a.s.l.) you can easily reach the Bärghuus Riggisalp at 1493 m a.s.l., the starting point for the Breccaschlund circular hike, by chairlift. After just a few steps on the panoramic path, you are right in the middle of the mountain arena between Charmey, Jaun and Schwarzsee.
You will be amazed at the many sycamore trees that can be found in the primeval landscape of Brecca: not exactly large, but with striking shapes. Likewise, the chamois, marmots and alpine flowers along the way will delight not only children!
There is also no shortage of rustic inns along the way. From cheese to coffee to a cool drink. Whether to recharge your batteries or simply to enjoy nature. The alpine huts have everything a hiker's heart desires.
