This wonderful circular tour starts at the middle station of the Stand Xpress and follows the Metsch snowshoe trail to the edge of the forest. From here, this trail climbs along the edge of the forest to the Metschmaad 6-seater chairlift, which is just a few metres from the Iglu Bar and is easily accessible on snowshoes. The route is relatively flat on a snow-covered road towards Bühlberg before the descent on the Metsch snowshoe trail leads through remote fields back to the middle station
