From the starting point at the Muggeseeli information point, the legendary ascent through the "Wildi" district soon awaits, but don't worry, you will be rewarded directly with the descent to the Catholic church. Passing the valley station of the Oeschinensee cable car, the second descent follows immediately, with the option of shortening the route at the end of the descent on the left or following the original route on the right. The original route leads along the sunniest ascent to the Nordic Arena ski jumping stadium.Translated with DeepL

Safety information

Please note that you are basically on your own responsibility! The cross-country skiing association does not maintain its own rescue system and does not make a final slope check, as is usual in alpine skiing areas. Please also note the SOS information signs as well as the board of rules of conduct at the cross-country skiing centre.

Tips and hints

You can find out which trails are open at any given time in the snow sports report.
