Hohwald Weather Forecast
About
Hohwald is a small ski hill above Beatenberg in the Bernese Oberland, Switzerland, overlooking Lake Thun. A T-bar from 1966 and two rope tows serve about 4 km of mostly gentle runs with roughly 300 m of vertical. The compact, low-key setup makes it a local hill geared toward families and beginners rather than a full destination resort.
