If the hiker climbs down from the GEISSFUSSATTE, he is rewarded with breathtaking views of the Oberer Gaisalpsee. The Unterer Geisalpsee follows immediately. Since I did the tour in the rain, at least 20 black salamanders crawled onto the trail.

The saddle is easy to walk at the foot of the Gais in the direction of the Gaiskopf up to the junction to the upper Gaisalpsee.
