Description

The 5-lakes hike at the Gotthard Pass is one of the most beautiful hikes around the Gotthard massif. Hikers get to experience the magnificence of the Gotthard up close with every step they take. This walk is truly life-affirming, even if the weather doesn't play along. It is especially when fog abounds and the sky is overcast that the Gotthard sometimes exerts its special appeal.
