The entrance to the hiking trail is located east of the mountain station building. From there, head south uphill along the slope and after 10 minutes reach the highest point of the Betelberg ski area, Leiterli. Ahead lies Stübleni, whose northern slope, the Gryde, is deeply furrowed even in winter despite the thick snow cover. Downhill the view extends to the winter-quiet Pöschenried. From Leiterli, descend gently in a southwesterly direction along the slope towards the Gryden. At Steinstoss, the pass-like crossing at point 1953, the Leiterli circular route turns left towards Alp Stoss, while the described Tschätte circular route continues downwards to the right.The prepared path now descends quite steeply (poles advantageous) towards Läger, makes a slight curve below the alpine hut, and then runs along the forest without significant elevation changes. A peaceful picture unfolds: above the wide plateau towers Albristhorn on the opposite side of the Simmental.
