Completely came to Switzerland because of this picture

🇨🇭 Switzerland Hidden Gem | Oeschinen Lake Sapphire Hiking Guide 🏔️ Every snap is a wallpaper-worthy masterpiece! How can you miss Oeschinen Lake when visiting Switzerland! The glowing blue lake water + towering snowy mountains in the background make it a perfect Alpine postcard collector 📸 📍 Location: Kandersteg, Switzerland, Oeschinen Lake Cable Car Station 🚌 Transportation Tips: Take the train from Interlaken to Kandersteg Station, then transfer to bus 242 to the cable car station 🥾 Hiking Route: 1️⃣ Cable Car Station → Alpine Pasture Only 20 minutes to the first stop! A gently sloping meadow trail where you’ll encounter jingling cows 🐄 2️⃣ Pasture → Viewing Platform This 15-minute climb is amazing! Facing the Blüemlisalp Glacier, the wooden bench halfway up the mountain is a popular photo spot 3️⃣ Viewing Platform → Oeschinen Lake Remember to look back when passing through the pine forest! The suddenly appearing Tiffany blue lake will take your breath away 💙 🔥 Must-Visit Spots: ▫️ Floating Bridge in the middle of the lake: Stand in the center for a "walking on water" optical illusion photo ▫️ Pebble Beach: Take off your shoes and cool your feet in the crystal-clear water 🍴 Cliffside Restaurant Recommendation: Cheese fondue at Bergrestaurant Oeschinensee! Pulling cheese while watching the snowy mountains is absolutely amazing 🧀 ⚠️ Tips: • Cable car operates from 8:00 to 17:00, morning visits have the best lighting • Temperature by the lake is 5-8°C cooler than the valley, bring a windbreaker • Wildflowers bloom beautifully from June to September, the area may close after October 📸 Photo Guide: • Shoot the lake in the morning for bluer water • Use pine branches as foreground composition • Wear bright colors to stand out
