Bachalpsee or Bachse is a lake
with an area of 19.9 acres close to the above Grindelwald in the Bernese
Oberland, Switzerland. The lake, located at an elevation of 7,431 ft, is split
by a natural dam, the smaller part of the lake being 20 ft lower. The lake can
be reached with a cable car. Lake Bachalpsee is a real desire for hikers with
magnificently landscaped path leads through lush flowering alpine meadows. On
the opposite side of the valley, ice-capped 4,000 metres mountains tower in the
air. Hiking trails are for families of all ages with weather-resistant clothing
and sturdy shoes. During the journey you can also see the mountain chains from
Faulhorn, Schilthorn over Jungfrau, Eiger, Schreckhorn, Wetter horn and Engel
Horner.
There is nothing to dislike this
place, because this is truly an amazing place to visit, gorgeous alpine
scenery, and beautiful lake and behind the massive Bernese Alps. This is definitely
a must see in Grindelwald. Take a picnic lunch and spend time at the lake. Take
the trail from the lake to Bort after leaving the lake. You can also see there the
reflection of mountain very clearly. A peaceful place for relax. After walking
for more than an hour from First, you will then see the beautiful lake. It is 100%
sure that you will not regret to walk for such a long time. Without any doubt this
is one of the top places in Switzerland with a wonderful view over the mountain
range. Unfortunately, the lake is very busy as hordes of tourists visit it
every day. Go in off season or early morning or late evening. Then, it is
wonderfully peaceful and serene.
Bachalpsee Lake is separated by a
natural damn with green pastures mostly eaten by cows in the late spring when
the snow thaws in summer. There’re number of picnic spots and resting areas, in-fact
two mountains huts in this area. But make sure there is no toilet facility
there. The lake water is cold and snow free in summer. There’re some species of
plants and algae that thrive below it and surprisingly and very small fishes
that live on the lake! Source: Charismatic Planet
