The large slope "Laub" is not only mighty and impressive when seen from the village of Engelberg. Thanks to its width, the Laub (old word for avalanche) offers space for many tracks. Due to its fame, it is a heavily used and thus often tracked descent. The easiest variant leads on the very right from above via "Laub Planggen Alp" into the terrain steeper than 30°.

- First part very very rocky with little snow
