After a few meters along the Simme, the trail climbs up to Metsch via Brand, then continues at almost the same altitude towards the end of the valley and down to Rezliberg via Staldeweid. Shortly before the impressive "Sibe Brünne" - the source of the Simme, a photo stop is almost a must - the path branches off and leads through steep terrain up to the Flueseeli. After passing the Flueseeli, be sure to turn around a few times and look out of the valley, the view is stunning!

The route continues through stony terrain towards the roof of the Swiss Trail Tour, which is reached in high alpine terrain at the Tierbergsattel at 2,654 m above sea level. Now it's time for the descent, which leads past the Rawilseeleni, Stiereläger and Blattihütte down to the Iffigenalp. The descent takes you down an interesting serpentine route through the rocky wall between Rawilpass and Iffigenalp. Back on the Iffigenalp and familiar terrain from the previous day, the trail leads the other way round on Sunday, from the Iffigenalp back to Lenk - the final finish!
