The descent of this route, with varying start and end points, is literally twice as long as the ascent. It is very impressive because it is not exactly one of the easily rideable trails, as some parts also seem quite dangerous. In terms of landscape, the Gental valley offers incomparable natural beauty alongside steep and rugged valley slopes.
The route starts in Engelberg and goes via Untertrübsee to the Jochpass. It is worth taking the chairlift there. From the Jochpass down to the Engstlensee leads a constructed singletrail (Hells Bells Trail). From the valley station of the Engstlen chairlift to the Engstlenalp, it goes gently along a natural path by the Engstlensee. From there, it is singletrail again until the end of the Gental valley. Afterwards, you ride on the road via Innertkirchen to Meiringen, the end point of the route.
