LangermattePhoto: Willy Brunner, Lenk-Simmental Tourismus AG
The Langermatte is an extensive and scenically beautiful snowshoe route. This route is not marked in the terrain.
The start of the route is either at Iffigenalp, which can only be reached by taxi in winter, or at Hubelmatte. Starting from Hubelmatte, the Iffigenalp road is quickly left and climbed over fields to Fallweid. Here a short section of the Iffigenalp road is followed through the forest to Ritzdole. Then it continues through field and forest towards Langermatte. The last 150 meters of elevation are climbed in open terrain. Langermatte is a high plateau with a brilliant view of the Wildstrubel and Laufbodenhorn.
From Langermatte the route bypasses the steeper slopes to Alp Langer. From here the summer road is followed to Chäli. From Chäli it goes through clearings and deep snow-covered forest sections. The last part of the descent leads down the snow-covered road to the Simmenfälle restaurant.
