The Kiental Trail leads from Kiental via the chairlift valley station up to the Lengschwendi area. Along the Sonnenhang, you cross snow-covered meadows and climb up to Gürmschi. From there, descend into the forest to Zällergrabe/Fulbrunni. Here you have the option of following the valley hiking trail back to Kiental Dorf (Kiental Trail blue, easy trail, 7.4 km).If you still feel like it, follow the alpine path up to the Tschingelsee (Kiental Trail red, moderately difficult trail, 11.4 km). The shady, icy and snow-covered Tschingel area is even more impressive in winter than in summer. But don't forget warm clothes! After circling the lake, the snowshoe trail follows the same route back to Zällersgrabe/Fulbrunni. From here, follow the valley hiking trail (blue trail) via Losplatte back to Kiental Dorf. The elevation profile of the medium-difficulty Kiental Trail (red) is shown below.
