From Niederdorf, stroll past gentle meadows to Putzalm, then climb to Sarlsattel and summit, rewarded with breathtaking views. About 3.5 hours.

From Niederdorf, head towards Bad Maistatt. Just before the bridge, keep right and follow trail number 15, which safely guides you along the correct path. Passing the cozy Putzalm hut, immediately take a left onto trail number 16.

Continue to junction 16B, where you turn right and ascend towards Sarlsattel at 2,338 meters. This section already offers impressive views that energize you to keep going.

The final part leads across the south-facing slope — surefootedness and a head for heights are required here — up to the summit at 2,378 meters. From the top, you’ll be rewarded with a breathtaking panorama that more than makes up for the effort.

The total hiking time from Niederdorf is about 3.5 hours. A special highlight of this tour is the Putzalm, which is open in summer and invites you to enjoy regional delicacies in a cozy setting.
