Wanderung: Umrundung der Medergenfluh

The first section takes us along a scenic panoramic path, passing by meadows, alpine pastures, and blueberry bushes. The view is already a dream – and it’s about to get even better. We steadily ascend until we reach Lake Vjiboda. From here, we continue to the Tritt. 220 iron steps embedded in the rock lead through a rugged wall – a narrow, spectacular passage that we can navigate without a rope thanks to the safety measures in place. Surefootedness and a head for heights are essential. After this, we continue to ascend to Lätschüelfurgga and to our peak, Chörbschhorn at 2,651 m above sea level. Once at the top, we face the Medergenfluh almost at eye level. The panoramic view is simply overwhelming: peaks upon peaks stretch out before us. The descent leads southward to the Chörbschhorn hut. From there, we cross over to Schwiifurgga, which lies right at the foot of the Medergenfluh. From here, we mostly go downhill across the open meadows of Tschuggenalp, where with a bit of luck, we can observe numerous marmots playing. Soon, Medergen comes back into view – our starting and ending point. To conclude the tour, we dive into the history of the Walser people and relax at the Alpenrösli, enjoying the view over the picturesque Schanfigg.
