Medium effort trail through alpine forests, along running streams and picturesque waterfalls. Come in autumn to see a perfect Indian summer. This trail becomes more and more secluded the farther you go.

Again many pictures from a wonderful day tour.
Lake “The Loch” had a breathtaking backdrop and Lake Haiyaha had an extraordinary color. Despite the moderate altitude, the tour was quite strenuous as it was always at an altitude of around 3000 m.
