Route description

From the Mettlenalp, a steep path leads up to the Napf. After this one-hour hike, you can enjoy the view from the Jura to the Alps during a well-earned break. Reinvigorated, follow the path down to Stächelegg. From here you get your first glimpse of the imposing Stächeleggflue, the so-called «Änziloch». Via Ober Änzi with the summit cross and Mättebergegg, the trail leads via Goldsitenegg to the Barbecue area in the bend at Goldsite. From here it is only about 10 minutes to the bus stop «Romoos, Holzwäge» and the Holzwäge restaurant.
