Description

From Berghaus Arflina, the route leads northwest and passes a hollow at Caua. Continuing in the same direction, you ascend east of point 2153 (small lake) over the broad southeast ridge of Glattwang into the upper hollow below the summit slope. The last part leads over the south ridge to the summit of Glattwang (2376 m above sea level). Descent along the ascent route and, if conditions allow, down via Alp Nova to Fideris.

Attention! Below Alp Nova Untersäss is the Oberwald wildlife reserve - the route runs through a narrow corridor. Thank you for respecting nature!

Hidden Gem

Use the shuttle buses of the Fideriser Heuberge as an ascent aid. This way you have more time to enjoy the magnificent mountain world of the Fideriser Heuberge.
