Description
A little outside of Steg you reach the mountain path that leads you higher and higher with a constant incline. From the Tannen saddle you see the bare Hüttchopf, which you climb via the north ridge. The path partly leads through the forest, partly over meadows, with a final pathless ascent at the end. The view here on the Hüttchopf is magnificent: whether down to the Töss, to the Säntis or even northwards to Lake Constance!
Next, continue to the mountain restaurant Scheidegg, where a fantastic view awaits you. Afterwards, you take the descent over the Josenberg and down into the Sagenraintobel gorge. The idyllic Schmittenbach leads you now to your day's destination in Wald.
