    Diese Rundwanderung ist ganz fabelhaft. Die vielen Ausblicke und Tiefblicke sind toll. Und wenn man Glück hat, so wie wir, lassen sich Gemsenrudel aus nächster Nähe beobachten. Es ist durchaus Trittsicherheit erforderlich weil die Wege über Stock und Stein führen.

    Die Rundwanderung selbst ist wirklich wunderschön, ein schöner Sonntagsspaziergang. Mit der Einkehrmöglichkeit hapert es jedoch. In Farnern wurde ein neues Restaurant eröffnet, das hat aber nur ein paar Tage pro Woche offen und hat so gar nicht überzeugt. Da nehme ich mir lieber selber etwas mit, da es ja auch nur kurze Wanderung ist.

    Habe den umgekehrten Weg gewählt. Schöne Landschaft, tolle Aussicht. Jedoch sehr starker Anstieg nach Schwengimatt.
