Kandersteg

Tucked into the upper Kander valley in the Bernese Alps, Kandersteg is a place whose character is shaped by the Kander River and the steep mountains around it. Above the village lies Oeschinen Lake, a mountain lake beneath the Blüemlisalp massif and a popular starting point for alpine walks. Kandersteg also marks the northern approach to the historic Lötschberg Tunnel, a 14.6-kilometre railway tunnel opened in 1913. Since 1923, the Kandersteg International Scout Centre has brought young people from around the world to this high-valley community.
