The mountain village Albinen is easily accessible by bus. On foot, you hike from the Albinen Schwelli bus stop (fire station) about 1.5 kilometers up the prepared road to the Buljes clearing. From here, the run starts back to the village.
Author’s recommendation
Pay a visit to the old village center of Albinen. The quaint, sun-browned barns and granaries are charming. With sled, sun, and snow, it's the perfect winter experience.
