This snowshoe trail leads to some magically beautiful spots between Rotenboden and Riffelberg. Along the way it passes the frozen Riffelsee, hibernating under a thick blanket of snow.

Description
When the Riffelhorn casts its dark shadow across the Riffelsee, evening is still a long way off.
But this is a magical moment in winter, known as the blue hour.
A calmness descends on the mountain; the ski pistes are far off.
Take a deep breath and continue walking: soon the magnificent panorama reveals itself once again, with the Matterhorn, Obergabelhorn and Weisshorn.
A winter's day of fairy-tale beauty, sure to linger long in the memory.Marked approx.
