From Göschenen to the Häderlis bridge in the Schöllenen Gorge, the route follows the main road; there you change to the other side of the valley to a narrow, quite steep path.
The main road is crossed at Brüggwald, where the old mule track is an alternative to the main road. After the Teufelsbrücke bridge, you reach Andermatt and continue on the Oberalp pass road to the Nätschen. From there, take a dirt road to Gütsch and continue up to Stöckli.
The descent through the Riental valley is very difficult and should only be tackled in dry conditions. It starts at the top 180-degree bend below the Stöckli; the start of the trail is to the right of the army cable car when viewed from above. After Göschenen, there are over 1300 meters of altitude to conquer. In the lowest part, the bike often has to be pushed - due to scree, high steps or yawning chasms.
