A network of about 49 km of winter hiking trails stretches across the valley and its snowy landscape. The routes are numbered and marked in purple.
From the Trübsee mountain station, the path is slightly uphill leading to Hüethütte at the foot of frozen Lake Trüb (Trübsee). This gentle hike passes the lake and leads to the Trübsee chapel as well as Station Trübsee -- always with the Titlis glacier in view.
