The Beauty of Oeschinensee

The hype surrounding Oeschinensee is absolutely justified! The first time I came across YouTube videos showcasing its beauty, I couldn’t help but think it looked stunning. Yet, I also wondered if those videos might be embellishing reality—how often do we see places look more magnificent through a screen?

As it turns out, I was completely mistaken—and I’m thrilled about it! Oeschinensee is even more breathtaking in person than it appears in YouTube videos, Instagram posts, or photographs, particularly when the weather is just right.

Hiromi mentioned that it was the most beautiful place she has ever seen, which carries significant weight considering her extensive travel experience as a former flight attendant.

I had my own expectations of how Swiss landscapes—mountains, valleys, rivers, and forests—ought to look, thanks to numerous trips my father took me on during my childhood. However, after being away from Switzerland for more than 30 years, Oeschinensee’s natural beauty still took my breath away.

I’m excited to create a weekly video series about our visit because I made a genuine effort to capture the area’s scenic allure. But as I pointed out earlier, experiencing Oeschinensee in person is a whole different ball game compared to watching it online. To truly appreciate the essence of this captivating place, you need to inhale the crisp mountain air, feel the cool water from the lake and surrounding waterfalls, and take in the majestic snowy peaks and towering rocky cliffs with your own eyes.
