6 - Ridge Saddle (Gällihorn) - Sunnbüel

From the valley station it feels like going in the wrong direction to the opposite side of the valley and even a bit back towards the village. But soon the hiking trail turns up into the Ueschenental. Repeatedly, the trail crosses the mountain road before you get a deep view into the Alpbach. Soon you leave the stream and come to the 'plain' of Ueschenen. Unfortunately, the trail follows the road for a few hundred meters before turning left and upward towards the ridge saddle/Gällihorn. This trail now steadily ascends from 1730m to 2164m. Exhausting, but the view will make you forget all the effort. A detour to the Gällihorn makes sense for the view but is not necessarily suitable for running. Descending from the ridge saddle requires some caution for the first 100-200m. Possibly better to walk. Then it continues enjoyably to the mountain station of the Sunnbüel cable car. At the mountain restaurant, for example, a Rösti and an apple spritzer await you.
