The short section of about 1 km along Trübsee, the first lake of the route, passes by on a wide path with the bike. The well over 400 meters of altitude from Trübsee to Jochpass can be mastered with the chairlift. From here, the flow fun starts; it goes over a beautifully laid out singletrail, the Hells Bells Trail (1-meter path width) towards Engstlensee. Need a short break? A refreshment is offered by the crystal-clear glacier water. After passing the lake, there is an ascent via a steep gravel path to Tannalp. At some narrow sections, the bike must be pushed. On a wide asphalt road along the deep blue Tannalpsee and beautiful alpine meadows, you reach Melchsee, the fourth lake of the route. In Melchsee-Frutt, there are various restaurants with sunny terraces where you can enjoy the panorama and recharge for the return journey. On the way back, it goes the same way to Engstlensee. Up to Jochpass and the starting point of the trail highlight, the Jochpass Trail, the chairlift takes you.
