The saddle can be reached either from Schwägalp or from the village of Urnäsch up to Kronberg. You can also hike over the pass on the second stage of the Appenzeller Höhenweg (hiking route 980). This leads from Schwägalp via Chammhalden up to Nusshaldensattel and from there via Petersalp back down to Urnäsch.
