Beautiful, easy round tour from Abländschen. The route leads mostly on single trails or natural roads and offers beautiful views of the Gastlosen chain and varied trail sections again and again.

The route from Abländschen climbs relatively evenly on the road up to the Mittelberg Pass. From there it gets a little steeper in parts before you reach the end of the asphalt road at Alp Hinteren Schneit and switch to a single trail. This offers a lot of riding fun and beautiful panoramic views of the Grischbachtal and the Pays-d'Enhaut until Chaltläger. Then you change direction and continue on single trails with a climbing tendency until you reach the Bire. From there you get on the dirt road, which is reminiscent of a double-track single trail that winds as a panoramic path along the Hundsrügg and leads via Schlündi to the Jaunpass. From Jaunpass, the route then goes back down to Abländschen on singletrails and natural roads.
