01/ Overview
The route
The Sörenberg village trail crosses open meadows and broad expanses of moorland with only a few climbs. Almost seven kilometres for classic cross-country skiing or skating, with several access points around Sörenberg Platz.
From the Sörenberg Platz bus stop, it is only a few steps to the access point at Habchegg and the valley station of the Brienzer Rothorn cable car. The almost seven-kilometre village trail is groomed for classic cross-country skiing and skating. Thanks to the minimal elevation changes, it is also suitable for first outings on cross-country skis. It initially crosses the open ground on the edge of the village and passes Chalet Sörenberg.
With only a few ascents and descents, the trail winds through meadows and broad expanses of moorland. Around the halfway point, it climbs gently to its highest point at approximately 1'270 m near Arnitriste. It then returns towards Sörenberg over similarly gentle terrain. After just over an hour and a half, the circuit closes at Habchegg and the valley station; the Sörenberg Platz bus stop is around 80 m away.
