Itinerary
We will start in a village of Murren and fininsh in Kandersteg near the iconic Oeschinensee lake.
Have you ever dreamed of crossing the entire mountain range and end up in a completely secluded different valley where the only sound you hear is your breath and mountain streams? (oh, and perhaps the sound of marmottes and cow bells too..)
We will stay in history rich swiss mountain huts. This is already quite an experience!
Day 1: after getting to know each other, we will go to discover the surrounding mountains above Murren. We will stay at the hut at 2000m
Day 2: after mountain breakfast, we will head off to explore the valley further, we will climb an impressive col to cross to the other side. We will stay at the hut at 2500m
Day 3: after breakfast we will conitnue exploring this stunning valley and most probably we will meet some sheeps on the way before we start climbing a col. We will stay at the hut at 2800m at the foot of glacier. And hopefully have a chance to witness one of the most stunning sunrises in the Alps.
Day 4: after breakfast we will start decending towards Oeschinensee lake. We will take a long break above the lake to enjoy probably the most breath- taking view in Switzerland before we start our descent to Kandersteg
One of the things that I love the most about the hut to hut trekking is that moment when, after long day outside, hiking, soaking it all in and sometimes going through challenging terrains, once of the sudden, you arrive to the mountain hut. Your shelter for the night, your home – where everyone is welcome, no matter your status, physical condition and level of tiredness .’

What to look forward to?

I’d sit for hours watching the birds or squirrels, or looking into the faces of flowers. When I discovered a new plant, I sat beside it for a minute or a day, to make its acquaintance and try to hear what it had to tell me.’ John Muir, My Life with Nature
We will stay in an authentic and very local mountain house where traditions are still alive. Just staying here is already an experience that is difficult to find in nowadays….

About trek leader- Claudine
Claudine Wernli is a certified Outdoor & Trekking Guide with the Swiss Mountain Guide Association and has been a member of the Swiss Alpine Club since 2004.
Before making the outdoors her profession, she worked as a project manager in environmental communications. A solo journey to Everest Base Camp in 2020 became a turning point, inspiring her to leave more of the desk behind and follow her passion for the mountains.
Today, Claudine loves creating meaningful outdoor experiences – from hiking and trekking to climbing, snowshoeing and cross-country skiing. She especially treasures the moments that make us forget about time: inspiring conversations on the trail, beautiful landscapes, sunrises, campfires and nights beneath the stars.
As a guide, her aim is not simply to lead people from one place to another, but to create experiences they will remember long after the hike is over.
Claudine speaks German, English, Spanish and French.
Her connection with Be Outside Coaching goes back to 2021, when she met founder Ruta during their trekking guide training. In 2027, Claudine joins the Be Outside Coaching team to lead a variety of trekking and outdoor adventures.
What do previous participants say about Be Outside Coaching?
‘To be in nature means to experience everything: the sounds, plants, trees- to touch, to feel how everything is changing. It’s amazing to see how much nature gives to us. We must experience this again and again. I am so happy that I found out about the Be Outside Coaching.
What Ruta does in those Nature Retreats is amazing and I wish to everyone to experience it.

Come join me on a hike
To Bernese Oberland’s height
Where summer’s early rays do shine
And nature’s beauty is divine.
The mountains high, the air so pure,
A sight that will forever allure
We’ll trek the trails and take in views
Of valleys green and skies so blue.
The cows that graze, the flowers that bloom, A symphony of nature’s tune We’ll sit and rest upon the peak And let our hearts and souls speak.
So come my friend, let’s make our way
To Bernese Oberland’s sway
Where nature’s grandeur we shall see
And memories we’ll make, just you and me.
This Poem emerged from the friendship Hike in Bernese Oberland Region
Can’t wait to see you in the mountains!
