The event in a few words

Looking for a trail that will put stars in your eyes? ✨ Then remember this name: 📣 Göttanner Stärnenloif, a nature race in the heart of the Bernese Oberland 🏞️.

The village of Guttannen is nestled in the Oberhasli valley, among forests, torrents and great peaks 🌲. On the program for the Hauptlauf, the main race: 🏁 fresh air, mountain trails and panoramas that will make you forget your legs 💨. Here, you're not chasing the clock, you're chasing the scenery 🏔️. And since the event supports a charitable cause, every stride carries a little extra meaning ❤️.

Once you've crossed the line, don't head home right away, the region deserves for you to extend your effort… gently 🧘. Here are my tips, all a stone's throw from the start: 📍

• The Handeck Waterfall (Handeggfall): 🌊 it plunges nearly 50 meters with an impressive roar, and its spray is perfect for refreshing your calves 💧.

• Lake Gelmer: 🚡 you can go up there with the Gelmerbahn, one of the steepest funiculars in Europe (check its opening days before heading out) ⏰. Up there, the walk is gorgeous and your thighs, at last, get to rest 😌.

• The Aare Gorge (Aareschlucht): 🪨 a spectacular walk on walkways clinging to the rock, ideal for both young and old 👣.

• Meiringen: 🕵️ the neighboring village is famous for its Reichenbach Falls, linked to Sherlock Holmes, and for the legend of the meringue 🧁. You've earned a sweet reward 🍰.

So, ready to treat yourself to a weekend where the mountain does all the seductive work? 🦅
