From Ratzi, the path gradually ascends to Feldmess. From here, you maintain the altitude and can leisurely hike westward. Where the cowbells ring in summer, there is peace and quiet in winter. The sun accompanies you throughout the whole hike. You can also stop for a break along the way if you feel like it.

Author´s Tip / Recommendation of the author
If you have enough stamina, you can continue hiking with snowshoes from Ruoggig to the Eggbergen above Altdorf.

Ask the railway staff about the avalanche danger. They will tell you if the passage near Alafund is too dangerous. You can then use the Bürglen-Biel cable car.
