Summer 2021

Quick Summary

  • Took a (completely over-engineered) cable car from Tierfed to Kalktrittli.
  • From Kalktrittli we took the newly constructed path which had been blown out of the side of the mountain.
    • While the path is quite wide and very well maintained, it is extremely exposed (near-vertical drop of around 800 m).
  • Hiked up towards the Muttenwändli via the Nüschentäli.
    • We had a few small snowfields to cross despite it being mid-summer.
  • Coffee and Wähe at the Muttseehütte SAC.
  • Quick pit-stop on the Muttenchopf.
  • Descent to the Limmerensee.
  • Return via the access tunnel used for constructing the dams at the Limmerensee and the Muttsee.

Autumn 2022

Quick Summary

  • Beautiful autumn hike to the Muttseehütte SAC.
    • Planned to take the same path as in 2021.
  • Upon returning to the cable car at Kalktrittli, we were informed that the cable car was closed for the rest of the day due to high winds.
    • Had to hike down from Kalktrittli to Tierfed.
  • Much of the decent from Kalktrittli was through the forest which was quite scenic given the autumn leaves.
