    Hiking

    The station Schwandegg is approached by the Niesenbahn on its way to the summit station. Especially for leisurely hikers and families, the middle station is perfect as a destination or as a starting point for a hike on the Niesen - just go up to the summit and hike from there across the meadows to the Schwandegg.

    The timetables of the Niesenbahn can be found at niesen.ch.

    Mountaineering

    Ideal for mountain hikers who only want to hike half of the Niesen.

    Middle station to Niesen. If you only want to hike half: I personally find the upper part more beautiful
