The winter hiking trail is wide and sun-drenched! It's best to start at Rinderhütte on Torrent and walk the approximately 3.5-kilometer trail downhill. The elevation difference is 375 meters. The route passes under the chairlift and along the Schafberg toward the south. The views into the Rhone Valley keep expanding – phenomenal. And with some luck, you can spot chamois or snow grouse near the forest edge. After a few curves and forest clearings, you arrive at the picturesque Torrentalp and finally at the middle station.
