Starting in Matten, the route initially follows the road briefly to avoid walking through dense steep forest. After a few elevation meters, the first clearings in the forest are reached. From Brandweidleni, the ridge is followed to the summit. The mountain panorama on Schatthore is one of the most beautiful in the Obersimmental. The descent follows the ascent track and is technically easy to navigate and nowhere steep.

Classification according to the SAC difficulty scale for ski routes: WS -

  • Public Transport

    By train to Matten, St. Stephan. Timetable SBB.

    Alternatively, depending on snow conditions, you can take the Taxi 4x4 to a higher starting point.

  • At Färmelstrasse by the Mühleweidli fireplace

  • For ski routes, the appropriate equipment and necessary expertise (avalanche knowledge, alpine skills) are mandatory! Anyone without experience in assessing avalanche situations in open terrain should go on a ski route with a trained snow sports instructor or mountain guide.

  • As with every ski route, an avalanche transceiver, probe, shovel, and crampons are part of the equipment.

  • This route requires sufficient snow in the lower area, otherwise the first elevation meters must be done on foot along the road.
