A very beautiful, but also frequently visited viewpoint. New restaurant Bachtel-Kulm now open.

A bit steep in the upper section (up to 22%, if you can trust the navigation system). Just a heads-up for those who want to do the trail in reverse 😉

A very beautiful and easy trail along the stream. You have to be careful, as some high rocks unexpectedly protrude from the ground.

Tobel is easy to ride with a gravel bike. Mostly narrow gravel paths.

Beautiful path and always great to look at with the water features. But be careful, there are a lot of hikers, so respect for others is clearly paramount here
