    A hike with steel-blue lakes, an impressive waterfall, and idyllic Alpine pastures.

    The starting point is the bus stop "Schlänggen" at the front of Sahli. Here the path climbs steeply south over the Rinderplangg. The soon flowing drops of sweat are rewarded by the quickly gained altitude. From the Vordersten huts, the path leads eastwards without significant ascent to the Waldisee, which fits perfectly into the landscape of the back Bisistal.

    The reservoir built in 1960 is not suitable for swimming, but benches on the lakeshore invite you to linger and enjoy the magnificent view. After a well-deserved rest, the path takes you over the Muota to Gross Gade. After a short stretch on the natural road towards Gwalpeten, the path branches left to Spitzbächab (P 1384 m). Here the view towards the valley exit with the blue-glowing Sahlisee surprises you. You follow the widely visible path through the Plangg towards Milchbüelen. At the meeting with the Glattalp path, you descend a few meters to the road and follow it to Milchbüelen. Here the view opens to the impressive waterfall, which plunges over several stages down the opposite slope. After the idyllically situated Alp Milchbüelen, it goes quickly forward. Along the way, you will see the Eigelihütte on the left below, where the folk musician Rees Gwerder was also shaped in his youth by the landscape and its character. At Feldmoos, you will have to walk a few meters on the asphalt road before the path leads left down through the Plangg to the Schmallauistrasse. On this road, you hike to Salihöchi and then turn towards the valley exit back to the starting point.
