The tour
It is made for beginners and those who want to enjoy nature. At the beginning you can still hear the brook in your ears, then you run - just leaving a hint of hills behind you - a bit far over the valley floor back to the village. Quiet round for connoisseurs.

Turn-by-turn directions
From the parking lot in the center of the village we change the side of the road and stand in front of the trail map. Following the road, we come after about 200 meters to the trail entrance. From here along the Donnersbach stream to the first bridge. We cross the bridge and run between the brook and the road 150 meters into the valley and cross the main road. First flat and after a short terrain step steadily rising we run in a loop past the pension Gams. We keep to the left and after crossing a small forest we pass the farm settlement. Across open meadows past the Hoanz'n Hof and always slightly downhill we reach the main road after two kilometers. On the opposite side we can walk another 500 meters down the valley. Here is our turning point.
