The Kiental Trail leads from Kiental via the valley station of the chairlift up to the Lengschwendi area. Along the sunny slope, one crosses snowy meadows and climbs up to Gürmschi. From there it goes down into the forest to Zällergrabe/Fulbrunni. Here you have the possibility to return to Kiental village along the valley hiking trail (Kiental Trail blue, easy trail, 7.4 km).
Those who still want to can climb following the alpine path up to Tschingelsee (Kiental Trail red, moderate trail, 11.4 km). The shaded icy and snowy Tschingel area is even more impressive in winter than in summer. But don't forget warm clothes! After the lake circuit, the snowshoe route follows the same way back to Zällersgrabe/Fulbrunni. From here follow the valley hiking trail (blue trail) via Losplatte back to Kiental village. Below is shown the elevation profile of the moderate Kiental Trail (red).
