POI details
From Hohtschuggen your gaze wanders over the fantastic mountain panorama before you follow the steep hiking path down through the refreshing larch forest. You move through the main part of this route over the soft forest floor to Stalden. Here you cross the paved road and follow the signposts further downstream. Once below, a small bridge takes you over the rushing Vispa, and from there you hike uphill towards Stalden Saas train station.
