Raise your energy with a hike to the Oeschinensee

A precious gem in Swiss nature where you can fuel your energy, purify your soul and cleanse your mind purely by looking at the clear lake or by taking in the radiating impulses coming from the impressive surrounding mountains, is the Oeschinensee in the Bernese Oberland. Read on to discover more about the hike to this breathtaking location to raise and refuel your energy.



How was this location created?

Over 8000 years ago the creation of the lake started, when there were impactful landslides from the surrounding mountains. Since the lake gets its water from underground drains and various creeks in the bordering mountains, it could be why it is so energizing, not just to look at but also to swim in, as it ongoingly receives natural minerals.


These natural landslides also played a strong part in the hiking path from the village below, Kandersteg up to the lake making it not only an energy trail through the wild and forest but also providing exclusive breathtaking views.



A natural source of energy

There truly is a magical energy around and in this lake. By finding a spot near the shore and simply observing the impressive mountains whilst taking in the lake air is already an energizing and healing activity for itself. For extra energy, take a swim in the lake, where the minerals in the water and radiating energy from the mountains will fuel your body and energetic field making it a place where nature helps transform you to the positive.


The best way I can describe it is, when you enter the water, it's as if you're energy field is washed and cleansed, followed by immediately absorbing high frequency vibrations, radiating from the mountains. And that is truly a purifying and refueling experience.


To fully understand this cleansing and uplifting energy you feel when entering this water,  you've got to swim for yourself, it really is a magical experience.



The energy trail to the lake

To get to the Oeschinensee  you can start at the village Kandersteg, where you will begin passing an almost empty but extremely rocky river. Following this up the mountain you will be immersed into a wild forest. This hike will take about an hour and 15 minutes, and to get the most out of it, walk in awareness, stop often to admire the view, as you will see many impressive waterfalls and gain so much joy from the natural surrounding beauty. Walking up this path truly observing and taking everything in without any distractions will do you wonders!


Alternatively, for a longer hike fully immersed in the mountains, you can walk one of the 14 Swiss mountain passes on the Via Alpina, from Griesalp to Kandersteg where you will pass the Oeschinensee on your way down. This route takes bout 7h30minutes.



Just be and observe

Next to hiking the energy trail, observing the mesmerizing lake and mountains which literally send you fueling energetic impulses you can walk along the lake, go swimming, have a picnic and there are BBQ areas free to use, hike around the mountains facing the lake (which can take up to 5 hours) and simply immerse yourself in this gorgeous nature. Honestly, simply lying down, observing nature and immersing yourself in all this natural beauty is already fantastic by itself!



This lovely location in Swiss nature will leave you energized, sparkling with joy and truly refuelled as the mountains around this lake have such a unique and precious magical energy to them which can only be understood when felt.


As always, as an ambassador of exploring alone (or with the company of your furry best friend) and taking yourself on an adventure into nature, a journey where you can let your gut guide you, occupy yourself with just yourself, energize and refuel your body, head out and do this energy trail alone and let the universe provide you with magical opportunities and moments!


We are generation change.


Enjoy!


Yours truly,
