Open
This circular hike takes you from Fäld up to the lush meadows of the Binn Alps on the right, and on the other side of the valley, between partially shady forests, back to Fäld.

The starting point is Fäld at the Imfeld restaurant. From there, the path leads initially towards the mineral mine and turns left at Figgerscha. Then, you follow the hiking trail until you reach the Freichi and cross the stream there, where you can relax. The return path initially goes along the alpine road to Brunnebiel, then you turn left into the idyllic forest path that leads us back to Fäld.
