GPS Rothorn summit route

The start and end point of this circular route is the Rothorn summit, which can be comfortably reached by Rothorn cable car or on foot. The path leads from the Rothorn mountain station first to the Rothorn east summit from where you have a magnificent view of the surrounding peaks and valleys.

Then the path follows below the ridge towards Älplihorn, before you reach the Totälpli after crossing the ridge. Hard to believe, snow hares and chamois live in this barren, inhospitable landscape at nearly 3000 m above sea level.

After crossing the Totälpli, follow the path back to the Rothorn mountain station.
