Description
From the mountain station Saaser Alp on the Madrisa, you reach the farm Untersäss via the meadows, where fresh milk is available. Between the barn and farm, go left along the slope on a beautiful hiking trail to the Mässplatten viewpoint. A steep zigzag descent along the rocks now begins. At the bottom, you cross the steep scree slope of the Saaser Calanda on narrow paths with frequent ups and downs – caution is necessary! Wire ropes and handrails are partially installed. Later, you hike uphill between Swiss mountain pines and meadows to the hamlet of Zastia; drinks are available on a self-service basis at one house.
Next follows a strenuous but beautiful climb over the meadows of Hüschicalanda to the pass height at the Fürggli – if you like, you can include a short detour to the Jägglischhorn (2290 m). On the descent, you reach Alp Ascharina and walk down along the Alpbach on a gravel path. Shortly before the farmhouse Vordersäss, the paths split:
Next to the farmhouse, a narrow meadow path begins along the fence crossing the slope. After half an hour, the meadow path leads down in a small valley to the road from Inner Ascharina, on which you reach St. Antönien Post ten minutes later.
