Description

The ascent from Chelenalphütte towards Sustenlimi first crosses the sometimes wild stream and reaches shortly above Chelenalphütte, secured by some holding ropes, in steep switchbacks to the well-recognizable fork towards Bergsee. The route now leads southeast over solid scree with stony slabs and across several wild streams to a distinctive cairn at Hinter Mur. Scree and coarse blocky rock require surefootedness. Then the path leads through a ridge of the Hoch Horefellistock to Vorder Mur and then descends through only slightly different path sections down to the blue-green Bergsee. It lies still and quiet in the legendary surroundings, only the rustling of an installed tyrolienne conveys the bustle of the nearby hut. The subsequent short ascent takes hikers up to Bergseehütte.
