From the village traffic circle, take Rawilstrasse and after a few meters turn right onto Aegertenstrasse. The asphalt road winds up through the Aegerten through the residential area and continues as a dirt road. After crossing the stream bed, the path climbs up to Leiterli via a dirt road. One section is quite steep but easy to master with good support from the e-bike. Once you reach the top of the Leiterli, the breathtaking mountain panorama stretches out before you. Continue along the gravel path towards Pöschenried. The descent winds through alpine meadows and forests and offers you a view of the imposing Iffig Falls. Once you arrive at the Hubelmatte parking lot, ride down Pöschenriedstrasse and the Seefluhwald forest. At the end of Pöschenriedstrasse is the Betelberg valley station and the depot, from where you follow Rawilstrasse back to the village center.
