The name is misleading. The Weingartensee has dried up today and there are no vineyards far and wide. Instead, the simple barrenness of the mountain landscape, formed after the retreat of glaciers, and a dreamlike view.
The trail leads at first to the Täsch hut, a popular base for mountaineers planning to climb the Alphubel, Täschhorn and Rimpfischhorn. The path then continues up to the Weingartensee along a former lateral moraine. Scree, rock and cliffs dominate the arid landscape, which has hardly any vegetation. Over the course of time, the lake has dried up. Nevertheless, the place remains a great hiking destination with a wonderful view.
Dominating the landscape is the mighty Alphubel, more than 4,000 m high, whose shape and name suggests a hill rather than a mountain. In the local dialect, “Hubel” refers to a small, rounded mound or a hilly landscape.
