2 day route Chaiserstock

We start in Schachen in Muotathal, which lies in a plain flanked by high, rugged mountains, and follow the signposts to Riemenstalden and Lidernenhütte SAC. Over Flüelen and Hellweid, a primeval rockslide area, we reach Frutt on an asphalt road. From Flüelen, there is also an attractive alternative that is only 10 minutes longer on a mountain path through bands of rock over the Lower and Upper Wissenwand to Frutt. Here we follow the alpine road to Höchi, the passage into the Riemenstalden valley. Shortly after Höchi, the path to Lidernenhütte branches off southwards, first steeply uphill, then unevenly up and down. From afar, we see our overnight stay, the Lidernenhütte SAC. The next morning we follow the signposts to the Chaiserstock. Past the imposing Schmalstöckli, the route initially ascends over alpine meadows and alongside several small lakes. The terrain becomes rockier and the rocky southwest face of the Chaiserstock draws ever closer. The path runs under this soaring wall to a steep gully up to the Chaisertor. Now follows the exciting and exposed ridge, in exposed places secured with wire ropes and chains. At the top, we enjoy the magnificent view in all directions, both into the mountain world and far into the lowlands. How many lakes can be seen?

The descent is the same route until shortly before the Lidernen Plänggeli; instead of heading northwest to Lidernen, we now choose the steep path down through the Lidernen Plänggeli to Seenalp. Now a winding path leads us to Liplisbüel and then through the shady wooded slopes of the Hürital down to Muotathal.
