After a short section to shake off muscle soreness from the previous day, the ascent towards Iffigenalp begins. The ascent continues over the ridge of the Hohberg to the Iffighore. Once at the top, enjoy the view of the Iffigsee and the further route towards the Leiterli mountain station. The passage over the Stigelschafberg at around 2,300 m above sea level is the highlight of the day. The descent down the Hängstesprung will please the technical runners.

The route continues towards the Stüblenipass, where a loop to the Leiterli mountain station is run. Here, there are numerous spectators and supporters along the route.

With the Trütlisbergpass in sight, the trail meanders further through the crater-like landscape of the Stübleni. This landscape is unique and worth a photo stop! The return to Lenk goes downhill via Lochberg. Here you can really let loose once again.
