Experience a breathtaking view without having to cover too many meters in altitude! The circular hike to Jänzi takes you along a valley, through moorland, fir forests and alpine farms.

The hike begins at the Berghotel Langis, which is located right next to the large parking lot and the bus stop. The trail takes you past the Schwendi-Kaltbad restaurant, continuing along the meandering Schliere river into the Oberschlierental valley. From there, branch off eastwards at the bridge and walk along flowery meadows up to Egg. You reach the summit cross via the northern ridge, where a magnificent view awaits you. It is worth taking a short break there to enjoy your picnic. The way back leads over wide hills to Wolfetsmatt-Hohnegg and back to the Langis parking lot.
