Along the water’s edge, in pleasant shade, you’re almost certain to catch a glimpse of the eponymous inhabitants of Lake Gaishorn: its elegant swans.

This stroller-friendly walk circles Lake Gaishorn. If you’d like, you can take a dip in the cool water at the end or watch the animals living in the lake and along the shore.
