Turn-by-turn directions

From the hiking starting point Rüfiplatz, the hiking bus (toll) runs in the direction of Lake Formarin. Get off at the tollbooth. Follow the asphalted road southwest until you can see the Älpele inn on the right after about 2.8 km. Behind the inn, a path leads away. The wide forest path ends after about 1 km, at the Obere Älpele. From the Upper Älpele there is a short passage where it goes uphill a little steeper. After about one hour you reach the Göppinger hut (2245m).
