From here, continue to Fleschsee, Selez, or via the side path Chalberweid and the Gand Alp to the mountain station of the Ruogig–Brügg cable car. There is also the option to descend from Gand Alp via Eggen to the Mättental. Via Alafund and Mättental, the path goes with slight ups and downs to the Wiltschi/Biel junction.
