Hi buddies,

Let's go to the valley between Emmental and Berner Oberland. The plan would be to hike from canton Bern to canton Luzern (Interlaken to Soerenberg). Optionally, whoever still has energy, can extend the hike to Schrattenflue (~additional 5 km and 850m elevation).

This would be a good preparation for Rigimarsch 2026: https://www.hiking-buddies.com/routes/events/12584/ .
