Medium effort trail through alpine forests, along running streams and picturesque waterfalls. Come in autumn to see a perfect Indian summer. This trail becomes more and more secluded the farther you go.

Hiking

A scenic route with beautifully lined paths lined with birch and aspen trees. Along partially rocky paths, it passes numerous lakes. These are framed by majestic mountains and offer a truly beautiful view.
