Viewpoint circular hike | Bürserberg

This panoramic hike starts at the valley station of the Einhornbahn II cable car in Bürserberg. From here, this tour leads past the car parks up to the alpine pasture and along the goods road to Rufana Alp. After the Rufana Alp, the trail branches off to the right at the barrier and leads through a very beautiful piece of forest uphill to the Schesatobel viewpoint. After the viewpoint, the trail leads along old walls and over boardwalks up to the Bürser ski hut and the goods path. From here, follow the road towards the Burtscha Alpe uphill until you reach the Burtschasattel and the Frööd restaurant. From there it is only a few minutes on the hiking trail up to the Loischkopf, the second viewpoint with a sensational 360° panorama of the surrounding mountains. Return to the Burtschasattel via the same trail and from there the trail branches off directly at the Frööd restaurant into the hiking trail to the Alpe Klampera. Continue downhill along the upper part of the Schesatobel trail to the Fuchsbau ski hut or Einhornbahn II mountain station. From the mountain station, take the goods path or the road down into the valley. Via Kohlgrubenweg you return to the starting point, the Einhornbahn II valley station. Alternatively, you can also descend from the Fuchsbau ski hut via the ascent path, the Schesatobelweg.

Equipment

Sturdy shoes, appropriate clothing, rain and sun protection, snack, filled water bottle and hiking poles are recommended. Mobile phone in case of emergency.
