From Lake Thun to the Rhone Valley – Stage 2

The route leads us to Kanderbrück and the former matchstick factory. On a guided tour through the museum, we learn more about its fascinating history. We then continue to hike steadily upwards. Passing farms, over pastures and through forests, we reach the Ronewald. There we join the Lötschberg Panorama Trail, which we follow. In a lively up and down, around some corners and ravines, we reach Kandersteg.
