    The start is at the BergJet gondola valley station. Here you cross the ski slope next to the children's area. (Watch out for skiers) Take the wide walking path there that goes under the summer toboggan run FLOOMZER. At the first fork in the forest, turn right. Continue following the path, again under the FLOOMZER, then cross the ski slope. After about 500 m take the path to the left towards Chrüz. Before the mountain restaurant there is a short steep climb. Upon arriving at the mountain restaurant, cross the ski slope again. Behind the valley station of the Stelli chairlift follows a short, steep climb through the bright forest before the path leads gently downhill to Prodalp with a magnificent view. Cross the ski and toboggan run at the mountain station of the Prodalp Express gondola before walking through a wooded area. The path takes you through a forest where you cross the ski slope and the toboggan run once again. Then you reach the Madlis plateau, which cross-country skiers, winter hikers and mushers with their huskies share. Afterwards, you hike towards the children's ski lift and follow the path up on the left to the rest hut "Heidi & Peter". Passing this on the right, it goes back to the starting point. 

    Author’s recommendation

    There are several mountain restaurants along the route. Why not make a 3 or 4 course menu out of it and have one course at each restaurant and then continue hiking refreshed.
