Short description

This circular hike from Baad takes you into the greenest valley of Kleinwalsertal where you find the Derra alp and the two Spital alps.

Description

No sun needed for this tour - the fresh green alps are colouring enough! An interesting scene is also when the clouds dance around the Großer Widderstein in the neighbouring Bärgunttal, by the way a completely different view onto the highest peak in Kleinwalsertal! The trail to Derra alp and the two Spital alps are partly alpine, partly they remind you of a jungle path. In midsummer dozens of cows graze on the slopes. When descending a stop at the Mitllere Spitalalpe is recommended, beautifully situated at the slope of the Unspitze peak.
