SEGNES TREK - Stage 4: Segnespass - Martinsmad

The shortest stage of the segnes trek leads you trough the Glarnerland. At the beginning, the descent is steep, but the trail soon levels out. Behind you, you have the Tschingelhörner with the Martinsloch – only this time viewed from the other side. At Alp Tschinglen, at 1,482 meters above sea level, you'll find the Tschinglen inn and a few old barns. The nearby stream also invites you to take a break before starting the roughly 500-meter ascent to the Martinsmad hut. This section of the trail is rocky and demanding (T3). The lovingly furnished SAC mountain hut is a small gem, surrounded by an impressive alpine landscape.
