    Höhenprofil

    Panoramic high-altitude round hike across the Pfälzerhütte, the Augstenberg and the Sareiserjoch. The ascent to the Pfälzerhütte in particular passes through beautiful flower meadows. The hike along the ridge rewards the climbing effort with fascinating panoramic views from Lake Constance far into the Glarus Alps and the Rätikon.

    It’s also possible to hike this route in the opposite direction. The more ambitious may also opt to take in the Naafkopf (2571 m) from the Pfälzer Hütte.

  • Directions

    The hike starts after the informative trip from Nenzing through the long Gamperdonatal valley at the Alpengasthof Gamperdona (1360 m). The trail then heads south to the end of the valley and across the Stüberfall to the Güfelalpe (1560 m). At a small bridge over the still young Meng, the trail follows the ascent and first leads through a shady forest and then through flowery meadows to the Pfälzer Hütte (2110 m). From there, hikers must take the ‘Fürstin-Gina-Steig’ high trail to the Augstenberg (2359 m) and then follow the ridge down to the Sareiserjoch (1990 m). The descent into the Nenzinger Himmel takes a right across the Sässalpe (1858 m) before it returns to the starting point.
