The hike starts at the saddle on the alpine road up to Alp Trida. The marmots often sunbathe on or immediately next to the road. Below Alp Trida you leave the alpine road and switch to the other side of the Schergenbach. Along the old alpine path it goes directly to Alpstein, one of the largest erratic boulders in Switzerland. There, the path follows the alpine road again for a few minutes to the next hairpin turn. At this point a beautiful singletrail branches off on the right valley side, which leads further down over the Mühlbach. Directly along the stream it goes to Samnaun-Laret.
