Description

The starting point of this hike is the parking lot at the former Hofstattbahn in Kelchsau. From there you hike through the village to the Kehlbach bridge and turn right in the direction of Feldalphorn (No. 74). Along the road you hike up to the Höhenbrandalm and further to the Trockenbachalm. Then follow the signs No. 74 to the summit of the Feldalphorn (1923 m). From the Feldalphorn, follow signpost no. 75 to the next point of the tour, the Schwaigberghorn (1990 m).
Passing the Neustattalm and the Alpmessaualm, you walk along mountain paths and forest roads back to the starting point (No. 75). 

During the tour there is no possibility to stop for refreshments. We therefore recommend that you take enough food and drink with you.
