Description
From Lauenensee via Geltenschuss to the Geltenhütte SAC and over Chüetungel back to the starting point. The wild and romantic Gelten–Iffigen ...
The mountain trail leads from Lauenensee into the wild Geltental, shaped by Geltenschuss and the Wildhorn. The ascent to the Geltenhütte SAC passes wild gorges and smaller waterfalls via the Alp Undere Feisseberg. The ascent next to the thundering Geltenschuss becomes an experience, as the path in the upper third passes behind a small waterfall. Good surefootedness is required in some places. Afterwards, you reach the Geltenhütte via alpine pastures.
The mountain trail to Chüetungel crosses the mountain slope below the Follhore. In the upper section, stairs or ropes are installed at some places. Special caution is required on this section. From Chüetungel, it goes steeply down to the parking lot very close to Lauenensee.
