Lake Oeschinensee - Tues

Tues 7th Oct 2014

Jess was fidgeting all night! She should have slept after that walk. She then booked her flight from Zurich on Saturday to Australia via London. The weather forecast wasn't looking too bad so we decided to drive to Kandersteg and go up the cable car and walk to Lake Oeschinensee. Kept our pitch at Camping Grassi in Frutigen by leaving our table and chairs. Good drive and parked ok for 4CHF for the day. Got a return ticket on the cable car for 26CHF each return and went up in fairly windy conditions (was warned it would go slow!) it was a great walk through forests and very rocky outcrops. When we arrived at Lake Oeschinensee it was the bluest blue water we have ever seen. We had our picnic lunch there (homemade soup bread cheese & fruit) and loved looking at all the tree sculptures. Walked back to the cable car via a different route which was just as scenic. Arrived back at Priscilla and drove back to Frutigen (which driving there saved us about $80 if we had taken the train and it was only 20 mins up the road!) The sun was out so made the most of it reading in the sun before cooking our meal (chicken with Hetty's apple & goats cheese) was delicious. Another great day in Switzerland.
