Itinerary description

Start at the parking spot and follow the trail. First part is smooth, but it gets quite steep towards the end.
The views are spectacular, as are the lakes at the top. You can swim in the lake (we did so in the end May 2022, but the water was a bit cold). There are two restaurants in the area, one next to the lakes and one higher (needs more walk/cable car).

Insead of returning using the same path, walk for anothet 1 hour towards Flumserberg, and from there take the Postbus towards Flums train station. From there, take the train to Unterterzen. Going downhill in such a steap trail is risky - can be too slippery.
