The start of this hike is at the Tourist Center in Lenk. From here, the route first leads past the Wallbach adventure pool, over the Wallbach Bridge into Furenstrasse. Here the path branches right towards the Simme, where the actual winter hiking trail begins away from the roads. Past the Boden train stop, the path goes over fields and forest to Schadauli. Until Matten, a small lane is followed.
