Fäld – Binntalhütte – Fäld
Landschaftspark Binntal - This path is on the old mule-driver route through the Albrun pass, which connects Binntal with the italian valleys of Ossola.
The hiking trail in the Binntal Valley offers a fascinating landscape and interesting sights. The starting point is Fäld, near the Imfeld restaurant. From there, the trail leads initially towards the mineral mine. Instead of following the Lengenbach road, you turn left at Figgerscha and continue the hike towards Binnaltini. The route continues at Freichi, where the path gradually ascends. The terrain soon becomes steeper, but the view is breathtaking, especially along the way to the Binntal Hut. Majestic stands the symbol of the Binntal Valley before you, the beautiful Ofenhorn, towering at 3235 meters high.
For the return journey, the descent is made back to Freichi along the same path. Then, a mountain road branches off to the right and leads to Brunnebiel. From there, follow the mountain road back to Fäld.
This hiking trail offers the opportunity to admire the beauty of nature in the Binntal Valley and to enjoy the impressive landscape.
