Nice hike to Vorder Glärnisch (2328 m) in perfect weather. Start of the hike in Hinter Saggberg at 8:45 AM, following the white-blue-white trail. It becomes pretty steep quickly, and basically it remains steep until you get to the summit. Exposed sections are safe guarded with chains. After 2 h 15 min with a good pace I reached the summit. It was a bit early for lunch, but I took half an hour break. During the descent I stopped a bit further down to have lunch.

Based on the number of hikers I met on the way, there may have been 20-30 people on Vorder Glärnisch today.

Please see the attached GPS track for more details about the route. The recording is somewhat inaccurate in the lower north-facing part of the route.
The total time given for this hike includes two breaks of 30 min each.

Equipment: hiking sticks.
