Details

Description

The starting point of this hike is Weisstannen. From here, the path leads along the Seez to Schwendi. On the way, we learn a lot of interesting facts about the ibex exposure, about the Walser and the valley at four information boards. From Schwendi it goes on the sunny slope through meadows and forests - easy but steady - to Vermol. Streams and a ladder require some concentration. At the chapel of St. Catherine in Vermol we are rewarded with a wonderful view. On soft ground, we bounce through the idyllic moorland to the Chapfensee, which invites you to barbecue and swim.

Geheimtipp

The Chapfensee is ideal for a little cooling.
