From the lakeshore in Bönigen through the historic houses path, over the scenic ascent to Sytiberg, further through the dense forest, back over the green fields and through the village back to the lake.

 From the lakeshore in Bönigen, it goes through the historic houses path and further on the forest path over the scenic ascent to Sytiberg. From here, it goes through the dense forest, past a fire pit to the Aenderberg forester's house, steadily slightly downhill. Along a small brook and past a farm over the green fields. Shortly before returning to the village, there is another slight ascent to the church before it goes through the village back to the lake. A hidden gem for everyone who enjoys peaceful and sparsely populated sections while jogging.
