Description
The route leads from the pass village Splügen initially along the historic mule track towards Splügenpass. Above the village, the path branches off to the left and at point 1589 turns right into the Fugschtwald. Now it goes zigzag up until the forest clears and alpine roses shape the landscape. Soon you cross the path coming from the Isabrücke and continue through marshy and rocky landscapes to the first level with the Under Suretta Lake. The trail leads only through blocky terrain up to the Upper Suretta Lake at 2266 m a.s.l. Here a jetty with a fishing boat invites you to rest with a view of the high alpine terrain.
Now the path goes down through prickly and partly wet marsh grass towards the northeast. After some gentle steps, you cross the Leimtobel. At the first crossroads, turn left onto the forest path to Panell. From here briefly turn right onto the road and then left again onto the trail down to the Hinterrhein. Along the river back to Splügen.
