Description

From Sunnegga, you reach Tufterenalp via a flat dirt track.

 

At Tufteren, the trail continues over the famous Europa Trail. On the high-level trail towards Täschalp, there are always smaller climbs to contend with. Please note: Some sections of the Europa Trail are exposed and require special care. Signs at certain points advise that tricky sections must be crossed by pushing.

 

From Täschalp to the turn-off onto the single trail to Blasboden, the route runs along the road at times. At the turn-off, there is a fountain and a barbecue area for the last rest before the descent to Täsch.

 

Alternative: If you start to tire, opt for the direct turn-off to Blasboden at ‘Wenige’ and miss out the demanding loop via Täschalp.
