About this route
Von Leukerbad führt der Weg durch den Lochwald zum Leiterngraben. Acht historische Holzleitern überwinden dort rund 100 Höhenmeter und führen nach Flaschen. Anschliessend verläuft die Route über Wald, Felder und Wiesen weiter nach Albinen. Leukerbad stuft die Tour als T3 ein und weist ausdrücklich darauf hin, dass sie nur für schwindelfreie Wanderer geeignet ist.

Difficulty
Physical effort, technical demands, trail conditions, ascent and duration — this says nothing about exposure.
Fear of heights
Exposure only: drop-offs, narrow paths on steep slopes, traverses, bridges and ladders. Assessed independently of the difficulty grade.
Why this rating?
The route crosses eight historic wooden ladders and exposed secured passages. Leukerbad explicitly states that sure-footedness and a head for heights are required.
