Description
The hike starts at Biberbrugg station. From there it goes uphill towards Fuseli and then to Wildspitz. Further on towards Höhronen and Chlausenchapperli or Raten. Up to this point, the hike is almost entirely in the forest and quite doable especially in spring. Note the lekking and breeding season of the capercaillie. This lasts from April to July and affects the area from Dreiländerstein to Langenegg. Information is posted on site during this time.
At Raten, the hike continues along the Ratengütsch to St. Jost. Then the path slowly descends towards Tänndli until Rothenthurm is reached. From here, there are train and bus connections again. There are several places to stop for refreshments, linked in the route.
