Description
You start your route in Hittnau. Through the neighborhoods, you leave the village and climb up to the outer watch Dürstelen – the legend of the «Türst» also takes place here. Over the ridge, you leave the hamlet and enter the forest, where you circle around the wooded summit of the Stoffel. You can take a break at the campfire site "Känzeli." At Grabenriet, an open area unfolds and the view stretches over the raised bog.
The next stop is offered at the mountain inn Rosinli. The terrace offers a view far over Lake Pfäffikon and into the Alps. Along the Luppmen, you return to Oberhittnau and Hittnau.
