"Like in a fairytale"

This circular route ensures a dreamy and unique experience! This loop leads through larches and along two lakes to the Anen hut and back to Fafleralp.

Shortly after the start you reach the Glacier Plateau and then the Grundsee, which looks dreamlike with its turquoise-blue color. The path continues fairly flat through beautiful landscape up the valley. Shortly before the steep ascent, there is the option to take a path along the moraine, which reaches the hut from the back side. Back to Fafleralp the path leads through larches past the Guggisee and the Guggistafel.
