    Hiking

    Breathtaking circular tour through one of the most pristine landscapes in the Freiburg Alps.

    🔹 Distance: approx. 13–14 km
    🔹 Duration: approx. 4 hours
    🔹 Elevation gain: +390/−800 m
    🔹 Difficulty: easy–moderate (T2), surefootedness required on the descent


    Highlights: 🏔️ Karst formations, wild alpine flora, expansive pastures, steep rock faces, and rustic alpine huts.
    Start at Riggisalp (chairlift), descend back to Schwarzsee – a true nature experience with photo spots and refreshment stops.

    It's certainly rustic back here, but don't expect a primeval landscape without human traces. There are roads, paths, alpine huts, livestock, etc. Nevertheless, the landscape is worth seeing.
