    On the official mountain running route, it goes up to the Rugghubel hut, further to Rotgrätli. On rocky ground, across alpine meadows, you cross the Bannalper-Schonegg and have a beautiful view of Bannalp Lake. Past the southern shore, up to Walegg from where you can enjoy a breathtaking view over the lower Engelberg valley. Via Walenalp, you return to the Engelberg basin.
