Snow shoe hiking in Kiental

Route 1: Kiental Dorf–Fullbrunni–Kiental Dorf

The Lengschwendi area can be reached via the valley station of the Ramslauenenbahn lift. You then climb up through snow-covered meadows along the sunny uplands to Gürmschli.  From there, the trail descends through the forest to the Zällergrabe/Fulbrunni. The Fulbrunni trail and the Tschingel trail cross here. Whereas the Tschingel trail continues further into the valley, the Fulbrunni trail forks off to the left here. By following the valley walking trail, you return via the Losplatte to the starting point by the Ramslauenenbahn lift.

Route 2: Kiental Dorf–Tschingel–Kiental Dorf

The first section of this walk to Zällergrabe/Fullbrunni is identical to Route 1. From here, you have the option of taking the valley walking trail back to Kiental Dorf (abbreviated version). Those in the mood to go further, however, can follow the Alpine trail up to Lake Tschingel.

Route 3: Ramslauenen–Farnital–Lengeschwendi–Kiental valley station

The starting point of the snowshoe trail is located at the mountain station of the Kiental-Ramslauenen chair lift. The trail initially takes you along the toboggan run until just after the first hairpin bend, where the snowshoe route then branches off to the right and leads across the Bachligrabe river into Farnital. The path continues down steep snowy meadows to Lengi Weid and across to Lengschwendi. There, you cross paths with the Kiental trail, which leads to Lake Tschingel. Those who wish to can combine both trails.

Please note

The area in which the Griesalp is located is prone to avalanches, so it is important to take the risk situation into account. The snowshoe route may be shut at short notice.
