Klewenalp-Bärenfalle-Niederrickenbach

From Klewenalp head towards Tannibüel and continue to the Stafel alpine hut (signpost). After a slight ascent, a wide hiking trail leads along the Scheidegg-Grätli, then it goes zigzag down to the Bärenfalle. On the narrow hiking trail, you walk down from Planggen Alp to Alp Ahorn, past the rest area at the water reservoir, to the Niederrickenbach mountain station.

This hike is also possible in the opposite direction.
