Gantrisch Königsroute (SchweizMobil 502)

The start is in Riffenmatt. After an initial ascent, the route passes the old moor baths. The Schwarzwasser is crossed in the Tröligraben. A descent leads down to Eywald, which is also an alternative starting point for the circular route. First on an asphalted alpine path, later from Schleifgraben on natural paths, the route steadily climbs to 1,540 m above sea level.

A forest path leads across to the Selital area. After an easy start, the steep ascent to the Horbüel Pass follows. The subsequent varied and demanding section over forest paths and alpine pastures truly deserves the name "Königsroute". At Hällstett, the view opens over the entire Central Plateau to the Jura. Those who do not have the courage to tackle the following descent on the old mule track can also go on foot. This is followed by a very long and spectacular descent over stony alpine and forest paths before a final asphalted section leads back to Riffenmatt.
