Description

With the Steffisalp-Express you can easily overcome the first meters of altitude.

At the exit a comfortable hiking trail leads first towards "Spitziger Stein" (beautiful vantage point!) and then on to the Hochalphütte (farmed).

Behind the hut the path leads slightly uphill to the Saloberkopf and further along a beautiful road over the Salobersattel.

At the crossroads keep left towards Auenfelderhütte (farmed) or Untere Auenfeldalpe.

The trail continues eastwards through the picturesque Auenfeld to the Auenfeldsattel.

From here the path leads left onto the Karalpe and on to the former old Walser settlement "Bürstegg".

From here it goes slightly uphill again in a northerly direction over the "Steinige Bühel" (yellow gentian!) to the Wannenkopf, before you come back to the Steffisalp-Express mountain station and take the train back down again. equipment
