Fenggatobel Waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

Poles are useful, you should be sure-footed and have a certain amount of stamina. This is rewarded at the turning point with a view into a beautiful valley. The way back is also …

It started in Gaschurn. Up the mountain, along the Fengatobel. A fantastically beautiful path, only recommended if you are sure-footed and have a head …
