Wildstrubel (3244 m ü. M.)

From the Simmenfälle restaurant, follow the alpine road to the Siebenbrunnen, the source of the Simme. At the foot of the mighty limestone wall, the Simme emerges foaming white. It's worth stopping for refreshments here, because now it gets steep. On a partly exposed mountain path, accompanied by running water, the trail climbs steeply up to the Fluesee lake, which lies at 2,045 m above sea level. The lake is surrounded by towering rock faces to the south and an open view to the north of Lenk. The path remains steep and becomes increasingly stony. The higher you climb, the more barren the alpine stone desert becomes. Before crossing the glacier stream, the trail branches off from the official network of paths and from here on is only marked by stone mandli. The huge Plaine Morte glacier is soon reached. The last 500 m or so are still steep, but the view of the Bernese and Valais peaks becomes more impressive with every meter of altitude. With good visibility, the summits of Mont Blac, the Matterhorn and many other Alpine peaks can be seen from the Wildstrubel.

After a well-earned break, you return to the valley along the same route.
