This ski tour follows the signposted snowshoe trail and is therefore the ideal beginner ski tour. The start of the route is at Hubelmatte, from where the route leads near the impressive and winter-frozen Iffigfall over fields and through clearings in the Summerwald forest. The further ascent up to the Pörisgrat leads through untouched winter landscape in open terrain. On the ridge, which is more a broad back than a ridge, the panorama of Albristhorn, Metschstand, and Oberlaubhorn is definitely a reason to pause and take a photo. The descent follows back over the mountain ridge to the Lischböden, from where it goes through wooded areas from clearing to clearing, hopefully through the finest powder snow, back to Hubelmatte.
