The hiking route up to the Bockmattlihütte in the Wägital valley is an impressive experience. The tour is suitable for active hikers and families alike.

The starting point of the hike is Innerthal on the idyllic Wägitalersee. On the first section of the route, you walk along a road from Lake Wägital towards Gwürzwald. From there, the route continues along a varied nature trail to Schwarzenegg. During a short break for a drink at Schwarzenegg, you can already see the imposing limestone walls of the Bockmattli towers. You then hike further up towards the Bochmattli hut. On the last half kilometre, a path finally leads you to the climbing hut.
