From here, it takes about another 15 to 20 minutes to get up to the Altmann. From there, you have an incredible view. But be careful, there's no marked path up, and surefootedness and some experience are required.

At the Altmannsattel (2368 m) you can see two of the mountain lakes of the Alpstein at once, the Seealpsee and the Fählensee. For this you have to walk a bit towards Altmann at the signpost and you have the best view. And otherwise the view is simply gorgeous and the mountain massifs that are to be seen are very impressive. You can see up to the Hoher Kasten and in the other direction you can see the famous Churfirsten in front of the Glarus Alps and with a bit of luck you can see ibexes up here.

The ascent to the Altmannsattel is from the Rotsteinpass and the Fählenalp forth is however quite steep and a bit kraxelig. The path from Rotsteinpass to Altmannsattel is almost exclusively and well secured, the way to the Fählenalp in the upper part also, in the lower part no more.

The way here is difficult. In return, the saddle offers a beautiful all-round view of the Alpstein. In the distance, the Säntis with its transmitter is waiting, but directly above it is the Altmann in an exposed position, while in the south the Wildhuser Schafberg is waiting to be conquered after an adventurous hike through alpine terrain.
