Thalkirchdorf–Schwand area

We go past the church without snowshoes until the Keller carpentry. Here we put on our snowshoes and walk uphill across the open field. After about 100 m, slightly left follow the snow markers towards the Naturfreundehaus (Schönblick). We leave the hut on the right and continue on the path to the Anger Alpe (not managed). Before the hut, turn right across the open field until the path leads into the forest. Follow the path further west, crossing the slope with a gentle incline. At the edge of the forest in gentle switchbacks to the Ratholzer Alpe. From here the summer track begins again. The path takes us past the Alpe Bärenschwändle to the alpine path towards Schwandalpe. Here follow the hiking trail signs towards Thalkirchdorf. At the path crossings with the ski slope, always keep to the right edge until the path leaves the slope again. Before the Moosalpe, turn right along the ski slope until the path leads into the forest again. At Schwändle there is the possibility to stop for refreshments. Descending towards the valley we follow the hiking trail signs to Thalkirchdorf. Shortly before reaching the valley, we cross the Schmidstobelbach on an iron footbridge and then already see the church and our starting point.
