The hike begins at the Morenia mountain station and leads to the Egginerjoch. At the Egginerjoch, the path branches off to the right and follows along the rock face to the end of the plateau. At the fork at Heidefridhof, the path continues north. Attention, the path leads over a lot of rubble and rock slabs. Watch for the markings. The path ends at Plattjen directly below the Mittaghorn. From Plattjen, the path "In the footsteps of the Saas-Fee Ski World Cup" zigzags down to Saas-Fee.
The insider tip on the route is the Swiss cairn at Brandgraben below the Mittaghorn. From this viewpoint, you have a unique view over the entire Saastal, including Mattmark Lake and Bietschhorn.
Note
Sure-footedness, a head for heights, and very good physical condition, as well as safe handling of rope and ice axe, are prerequisites for hiking this alpine trail. Furthermore, you must be able to overcome climbing sections using your hands and know the dangers in the mountains.
