Walk up to the Tschuggen viewpoint. The sun is setting toward the WSW, exactly where you will be looking. The 44-minute walk from the anchor gives you time to settle in and watch the light shift.

Local tip
The walk to Tschuggen is steep. If you are visiting on a Friday or Saturday, the restaurant stays open late, but the café closes earlier in the evening, so plan your drink order accordingly.
