Description:
The 5-Lakes Hike is one of the most beautiful panoramic hikes in Switzerland. I took the Wangs-Maienberg-Furt cable car in Vilters-Wangs, in the Canton of St. Gallen, which took me to the hotel Furt. From here, the Furt-Gaffia cable car took me to Gaffia restaurant. This is where I started the hike, directed to the Pizol hut. Before arriving, I took a small detour to check the first lake out, the Wangsersee (2206 m.) on the Pizol high plateau. Following a steep ascent I arrived at Wildseeluggen, a saddle at 2492 meters with a breathtaking view over the second lake, the striking turquoise-colored Wildsee (2438 m.) with the Pizol glacier and summit in the background. From here, a host descent leads to the Schottensee (2335 m.). Another ascent follows until you reach the Schwarzplangg ridge, from where you have the first glimpse of Schwarzsee (2377 m.). The last scent leads you to Rossstall, a very wide summit at 2456 meters. From here, following the ridge towards west you descent until you reach the last lake, the Baschalvasee (2174 m.). An easy descent brought me then back to the Gaffia restaurant, where I took the cable car to return to town. Hike of about 16 km and 1000 meters of elevation gain.
