Flumserberg-Weisstannen hut route

The hut route at Flumserberg starts at the Tannenheim, Post stop. It is located directly at the Tannenheim valley station. The first highlight is the ascent with the gondola to Prodalp. The gondola slowly rises above Lake Walen and the Churfirsten appear in all their glory.

At Prodalp a forest road starts, which after a few kilometers changes to a narrow hiking trail. It leads through woods, past flower meadows and herds of cows. Soon the mountain inn Panüöl approaches, from where the Spitzmeilenhut can be reached. After Alp Fursch follows a steep but short ascent and the last kilometers to the Spitzmeilenhut. It lies at 2,087 m above sea level and was built more than 110 years ago. Above the clouds you can admire the sunset before the next day descends 1,200 meters down to Weisstannen. The path leads over the Madchopf via Galans with views of the Churfirsten and Alvier chains. From Weisstannen a bus runs back to Sargans train station.

A hidden gem is Madseeli. This small mountain jewel is 10 minutes away from the Spitzmeilenhut.
