Winter circular hike in the Bärgunttal
Tour description
From the bus stop Baad, a prepared and gritted winter hiking path runs along the Bärguntbach up to the Bärgunt-Hütte. From there, the return route leads over an ungritted panoramic path on the other side of the stream at the foot of the Widderstein down to the Outer Widdersteinalpe. Here, the prepared path joins the already known path again and leads back on the familiar route to Baad.

Hikers, sledders, and ski tourers share the paths here and show consideration for each other.

The Bärgunttal is a valley with history: it was already roamed by hunters and gatherers in the Stone Age. When the Kleinwalsertal was settled in the late Middle Ages, the Tannberg and thus the Bärgunttal was probably the most important access route.
