Snowshoe trail Heiligkreuz - Reistegg - First
The snowshoe route begins at the valley station of the Heiligkreuz ski lift. It leads uphill to the Neuhütte and further to the Reistegg. From here you enjoy a magnificent view of the opposite hill ranges with the Napf. At Reistegg, the path branches off to the left. You have now completed half of the route. Over the next 1.5 km, the path becomes a bit narrower, but the view of the pilgrimage site Heiligkreuz, the Napf and the Jura is all the more impressive. Once you have crossed the ski lift, it is only a few meters to the sun-drenched mountain restaurant First.
