Description

The starting point for this hike is the Kelchsau Unterdorf car park near the former Hofstattbahn railway. From there, follow the signs towards Feldalphorn (No. 74). Passing the Trockenbachalm, where a light snack awaits hikers, continue along trail no. 74 until you reach the summit of the Feldalphorn. The return journey follows the same route. Alternatively, after the Trockenbachalm, the tour can be combined with the Hüttelboden circuit. In this case, you should allow for an extra 2 hours’ walking time.
