Grüebu

The Grüebusee lies in the middle of a rugged, high alpine world and still directly on the Grüebugletscher glacier. The ascent to the lake is easily doable by mountain bike, while the descent impresses with beautiful single trails in the second half.

Description

From Saas Balen, you climb along the alpine road via Matt to Hoferälpji and finally right up to the small mountain lake directly below the Grüebug glacier. On this impressive plateau, you are surrounded by a rugged, high alpine landscape. The descent follows the ascent route to Hofeälpji, after which you take the hiking trail to Heimischgartu. You cross the Fellbach stream and then follow a mix of single trails and mountain roads to St. Antoni near Saas-Grund. Then follow the trail along the main road back to Saas-Balen.

Alternatives: From Unneri Brend on the mountain road downhill to Saas-Balen
