The ascent from Tschingel via Griesalp to Aabeberg is on south-facing slopes and thus quickly snow-free. However, on a cold day in high winter it offers great pleasure away from the crowds on Chistihubel and Bundstock. Combining it with the route from/to Kiental, this route makes a rewarding last tour of ski touring days at Griesalp. Please note: the route is in a no-hunting area, so do not stray off the itinerary described here!

Route description

Tschingel - Griesalp - Aabeberg

From the parking lot at Tschingelsee (ca. 1160 m) follow the steep mountain road until the bifurcation shortly before Griesalp. Go north-eastward across the bridge to reach Golderli (1441 m). There turn left, cross the creek and take the alp access trail to the chalet at Hasebode (1717 m). Now on the summer trail ascend fairly steeply to the ridge (1885 m). Again on the summer trail overcome the escarpment north-westward to reach Chanzel. Follow the flat ridge to Aabeberg.
