Description
Start at the Melchsee-Frutt aerial cableway terminus and follow the footpath to Frutt, past the Panoramic Lift, via Distelboden, to the Bärghuis-Frutt. Here, if not before, it is time to strap on your snowshoes.

The route leads steadily upwards, with the intermediate destination Erzegg-Gumm always in sight. Once you reach the Gumm summit cross, enjoy the breathtaking views with the Melchsee-Frutt high plateau at your feet.

Continue heading towards Tannalp, with the striking Graustock and Titlis in the background. Via Fachshubel you reach Tannalp. Why not pause here and let the unique silence weave its magic on you - experience nature at its best!

Return to the cross-country ski trail along Lake Tannen and continue below the Bonifelsen to the Panorama Lift. Climb aboard and look back on your round tour 40 metres above Lake Melch before you make the last short stretch back to the aerial cableway.
