The little village of Oberricken-bach, which lies in an idyllic side valley, is the starting point for this wonderful, diversecircular tour. It leads from the bottom of the valley to a rugged ridge-top path, through various vegetation zones and past all manner of flora and fauna. After the first 750 metres of ascent, the route takes countless zigzags to the Haldigrat. To save yourself much of the uphill climb, you can take the Fell-Chrüzhütte cablecar.
