Snowshoe hike: Fischleintal Valley – Rotwand

The starting point for this snowshoe hike is the parking lot at Fischleintalboden (1,454 m). Directly opposite the Fischleintalboden hut, a path branches off into the forest. This is where hiking trail no. 153 begins, heading towards Rotwandwiesen meadows. The trail leads steeply uphill through the snow-covered forest from the start and requires a certain level of fitness. After about 1.8 km and an elevation gain of around 340 meters, you will reach the Rotwand cable car route. From here, follow the cable car route for another 500 meters and a few meters of elevation gain until you finally reach the Rotwand cable car mountain station.
Here, at an altitude of 1,914 m, the wide plateau of the Rotwandwiesen opens up – a magnificent vantage point with refreshments available at the Rudihütte or the Rotwandwiesenhütte. The descent is easy with the cable car or on the same route back down to the valley.
