Brief description

Hike from Ebnit across the Hohe Kugel and back to Ebnit. The round trip through pristine nature provides an impressive view of the Hohe Kugel and various Alpine Pastures with regional homemade products.

Directions

From the village you hike to the Heumöseralpe (in case you travel by bus, you get off at the bus station Heumöseralp) and get to the first Alpine Pasture, the Lindenbachalpe, via a small road. You hike on a red-and-white marked meadow and forest path past the Schneewaldalpe up to the Kugelaple. Afterwards you hike up the Hohe Kugel and north (red-and-white marked trail) across the mountain saddle to the Emser Hütte. After the Fluhereck (yellow-and-white marked road) you take a left turn to the Alpe Schöner Mann. You go back to the crossing near Fluhereck and reach the path that leads down to Ebnit and past Pfarrers Älpele.
