Description
The hike begins at Hotel Tiefenbach. Here the path ascends up to Tätsch. Soon you reach the highest point at Gespenderboden. The wide hiking path narrows but remains easy to walk. At Lochbergegg, above Realp, you can see the protective forest which shields the village from avalanches.
Hikers cross Lipferstein and arrive at a beautiful resting spot at Blauseeli, where about half of the hike is completed. Next to Blauseeli, there are many more small crystal-clear mountain lakes inviting you to cool off.
The route continues about three kilometers straight towards Bäz. The view towards Furka, Gotthard, and Oberalp passes is breathtaking along this stretch.
The descent begins via Hospental. A short section leads over a narrow path to Moos. From there, a wide and beautiful hiking path leads along the golf course towards Andermatt.
