The hike begins on the Saliboden just behind the Saliseeli. Here are the first power station buildings of the Schwyz district power station. At Tröli, cross the bridge over the Ruosalperbach stream. Then follow the alpine road. Follow the hairpin bends of the dirt road to point 1280, then turn left. The mountain trail now winds its way up a few more hairpin bends to a first plateau. The view opens up to Alp Milchbüelen and ahead to the mighty rock face to Glattalp. The Mären pile up on the right and the Hängst on the left. At Mütschen, the route then passes through typical Charst terrain before reaching the Glattalp plateau.
The panorama on the Glattalp is unique. In winter, this is the coldest place in Switzerland. In summer, it is a large alp framed by numerous striking mountain peaks. Probably the most striking are the Höch Turm and the Ortstock right next to it. Although the eye may be deceived, the Ortstock is around 51 meters higher. To the left of the Höch Turm is the Gross Chilchberg and at the very front of the valley is the Pfaff, an easily accessible hiking mountain. The Mären, Signalstock and Jegerstöck are on the right-hand side of the mountain range.
