Hiking to Muttenstock from Brigels is a lot longer than from the Tierfehd/Muttsee side, but I was in Brigels and wanted to give it a try. The ascent towards the summit is supposedly a bit easier than from the Muttsee side. Start in Brigels at 9:15, which was rather late, but that is when the chairlift starts operating (Brigels...

It was a warm day on my hike to Chli Chärpf (2700 m). In the morning there were clear skies, but later on clouds appeared around the mountain peaks. It was actually very warm to hike up from Unter Ämpächli to Charpfscharte. Only at the summit of Chli Chärpf, the temperatures were more comfortable. Somewhere before P.2260 I...

A wonderful hike in perfect weather - just check the pics if you have any doubt! Start in Fidaz at 8:00 (Fidaz Waldrand). I brought my mountain bike along, but I mostly walked the bike unless the terrain was flat. Left the bike at elevation 1890 m where the road ends. I continued up the red/white marked hiking trail to P.2106,...

Given the hot summer weather I wanted to go for a hike at higher elevations. In the area around Crap Mats there was relatively little snow left, even with an elevation of 2500 - 3000 m. The hike included visits to Crap Mats (2947 m), Morchopf (2943 m), Tschep (2943 m), Tschep Sura (2838 m), and Tschep Sut (2666 m). In addition...

Nice hike to the summit of Mutteristock, which is the second highest peak around Wägitalersee. It is only surpassed by the neighboring peak Redertenstock, which is 1 m higher. In the morning there were clear skies, but later on the clouds and fog appeared around the mountain tops. Fortunately, the view from the summit of...

On this nice and very warm day in June, I hiked to Bockmattli, Tierberg, Schiberg and Plattenberg. These are just four of many more peaks in the vicinity of Wägitalersee. On Schiberg I visited the south summit, but due to time constraints I skipped the north summit (even though I was very close to it). The ascent to Plattenberg...

Starting point: By car to the visitor's parking lot in Tierfehd, close to the cable car station. The cable car is mostly used by the workers at the hydro-power dam, but it is also open for "tourists" during normal hours. Ober Baumgarten 1860 m - Muttseehütte 2501 m -> (T3, hiking time 1 h 30 min) I...

First I took the chair lift from Flims to Foppa and then the second chair lift fromFoppa to Naraus. From Alp Naraus I hiked to the Segnas mountain lodge, past the Grauberg station, and up to Grischsattel. From there it's an easy walk to the summit of Ofen. On the way back, I also hiked to the top of the neighboring peak Piz...

I began this trip by taking the cable car from Brunni (Engelberg) to Ristis. The first cable car left Brunni at 7:30 in the morning, which was great in order to get an early start. The hike took me past Rugghubelhütte (mountain lodge), which is a very popular destination in the summer. From there I continued up to Rot Grätli....

The weather in Switzerland during the summer of 2014 was not great, but the 18th of July was definitely one of the absolutely best summer days. Warm weather and blue skies all day long! Perfect hikr weather!   I started the trip at the parking lot at the lake in Brigels (Lag da Breil), right by the...

Piz Dado (2699 m) is probably not visited very often. At the time of writing this report, there were only two other hikr hike reports for this peak. Of course, it takes quite some effort to reach Piz Dado, as there are no chair lifts or cable cars leading up that way. But the peak does offer a magnificent view, and is well...

Magerrain is well described here on hikr already, and I just wanted to add some detail about my route which did not go past Erdisgulmen and not through the famous crack (german: die Spalte). I started from Maschgenkamm and hiked past Sächserseeli on a well-known trail. Then I went in the general direction of...

I started this hike on the parking lot at the Fürenalp cable car station (elevation 1084 m). From there I walked back down the road a few hundred meters to reach the start of the hiking trail going up towards Undrist Stafel and Fürenalp. After about 1 h 40 min I reached Vorder Füren, and continued straight up towards the...

Ortstock (2717 m) from Braunwald via Bärentritt Start in Braunwald in the morning at 8:30. The hike goes like a computer game: Level 1: Braunwald - Ober Stafel Level 2: Ober Stafel - Bärentritt - Lauchboden Level 3: Lauchboden - P.2402 Furggele Level 4: P.2402 Furggele - Ortstock summit The descent was the same as the...

This hike was combining the Flims Riverside Trail (Trutg dil Flem) with a real mountain hike to Piz Grisch (aka Laaxer Stöckli). Sometimes you feel the need to start the hike "down in the valley", right?   First I hiked the Flims Riverside Trail (Trutg dil Flem) until Punt Desch, and then up along the (unpaved) road to...

Parpaner Rothorn, Ostgipfel (2899 m) from Lenzerheide I started this hike in Lenzerheide, following the marked trail to Alp Sanaspans, then past Lai Plang Bi and to P.2565 at Plang Digl Mestgel. From there I went straight up towards the ridge between the two peaks of Parpaner Rothorn. This last part is quite steep, has no path,...

August 1st, 2013 was an absolutely wonderful day for hiking, and it was my first hike to the Segnas pass with a really close view to the Martinsloch.   First I took the chair lift from Flims to Foppa, and then the next chair lift to Naraus, where my hike started at about 09:15 in the morning. I followed the trail past...

Nice hike from Brunni to Grosser Mythen. Because of the fog, the view from the summit was very limited though. But I got to see an alpine salamander at the top of the mountain! Remark: The attached GPS track is not an actual recording, but I drew the route in Google Earth right after the hike.
