To my shame, I must admit that I rarely ride on gravel roads, but this route is beautiful in both directions. The surface is very good, and nothing has changed since the 2024 landslide.

Can be reached on a beautiful hike from Kottenried, Börlas, Diepolz or Schlettermoos.

You'll enjoy a great view with several benches from Gopprechts via Freibrechts to Göhlenbühl. The route is quiet and a lovely connection from Akams to Niso.
