Beautiful 2-day circular hike. Wonderful views and panorama. Overnight stay at the Freschenhaus with a delicious breakfast buffet.  Overall a demanding route requiring good fitness, sure-footedness, and a head for heights.

Technically a rather easy route with a fantastic view into the valley and the surrounding mountains. Ideal in the pre-season, as it is less crowded then. The approach to Ebnit... narrow and already a small adventure. You always hope that no one is coming the other way and that you don't have to pass each other.

The Hohe Kugel attracts whole hordes of visitors with two short ascents from Fraxern or Ebnit, numerous places to stop for food, a nature friends' house, and of course, its location high above the Rhine Valley with free views of Lake Constance. But those willing to invest a few more drops of sweat will also find quiet paths here. On a beautiful September day after some rainy days, a popular hiking day, I met only 3 fellow hikers here away from the section between the summit and Emser Hütte.

    Wunderschöne Rundwanderung mit fantastischen Blicken auf das Nebelmeer im Rheintal! War auch im Jänner (bei sehr wenig Schnee) gut begehbar. Zeitangabe 4:50 hat (inklusive 30 Minuten Pause) für mich exakt gepasst.

    Leicht war diese Tour sicher nicht, selbst bei trockener Witterung wäre sie das nicht gewesen. / Insgesamt aber eine tolle Tour mit super Ausblicken und schönen naturbelassenen Wegen!

    Einstufung "leicht"? Also da sind schon knackige Pfade (Wald, Wiese), schmal und sehr uneben, die gerade beim Abstieg "Haxenbrecher" sein können! Eine gute Körperstabilität / Gleichgewichtssinn sollte schon vorhanden sein. Die Wegmarkierungen sind rot - bedeutet das nicht "mittelschwer"? Auch sollte eine gute Kondition vorhanden sein. Mit 600 HM (rauf + runter) ist ein völlig Untrainierter überfordert! Ansonsten ein schöner Rundwanderweg mit einer tollen Aussicht!

    Sehr schöne Tour, da wirklich wenige Menschen auf dieser Strecke unterwegs sind und der Weg überwiegend durch den Wald auf schmalen Pfaden verläuft. Wir haben die Tour noch etwas verlängert, indem wir am Wegpunkt nach 2,6km, Oberes Fuassa, noch weiter zum Treietpass, dann hoch auf den First, um den Gipfel herum wieder zum Treietpass und von dort auf die Hohe Kugel gegangen sind. Das war ein wenig auf und ab, hat sich aber gelohnt!

    Eine sehr schöne Runde. Wir hatten wohl ein wenig extra Schnee gebucht Ende April ;). auf jeden Fall sollte man der Laufrichtung folgen, andersrum ist der Aufstieg sehr anstrengend. es gibt genug Bänke und genug Einkehrmöglichkeiten!
