Start: Hinterarni
Destination: Hinterarni

Along the idyllic Arnisee lake to Vorderarni, there is a magnificent view of the Reuss valley at the end. During the hike, you are accompanied by the Bristen in its winter dress.

The trail heads towards Mittelarni via Hinterarni, which can also be reached directly by the Intschi-Arnisee cable car. As the snow crunches underfoot, the view sweeps over the Reuss valley and to Gross and Chli Windgällen.

Passing huts and stables, you reach Lake Arni again. Finally, a somewhat more challenging additional loop leads on to the mountain chapel, via Torli to Diessenbrunnen and back to the Intschi-Arnisee mountain station.
