Description

Hahnenmoospass – Ammertenspitz – Engstligenalp

The Hahnenmoos Pass, the historic route between Adelboden and Lenk, has stunning views of the Wildstrubel-Wildhorn massif and of the Obersimmental valley. But it gets even better. The entrance to the high alpine "Lowa-Weg" or Lowa Path, straight across the flower-strewn mountain meadows appears to be quite tame. Till you find yourself standing before the vertical North Face of the 2613 meter high Ammertenspitz.
