Description

On the last day, the route leads from the Tresch Hut up to the Fellilücke and back to Graubünden. The ascent takes two to three hours and is fairly even. Along the way, you’ll pass an alp with cows and chickens before climbing the final few meters over boulders, where you’ll discover small crystals here and there. From the pass, the Oberalp Pass with its famous lighthouse is already in sight. A leisurely high-altitude trail leads to Lutersee, which invites you to take a refreshing dip. The short descent ends with a pleasant stroll along the shore of Oberalpsee before you reach the lighthouse after six days.

Important Note: On the following dates, sporadic military exercises using tracer ammunition (auxiliary ammunition) will take place in the Strahlgand area: August 5 / August 11–14 / August 19–21 / August 24–25. Visitors may continue to use these areas. However, military activities may occur from time to time. We ask for your understanding and thank you for your consideration.
