description: "From the village centre of Adelboden, you first descend to Müliport on the Engstlige. From there, an asphalt path leads over Eggetli to Ahorni. Beyond the Bunderlebächli, a path climbs steeply through the forest to the pastures of Bunderalp. The view up to the vertical cliffs of the Nünihorn on Gross Lohner is breathtaking. Zigzagging steeply through rubble slopes, you reach the grass-covered bowl of Bunderchumi. You reach the sharp notch of the Bunderchrinde between Gross and Chlyne Lohner (Chrinde = notch, groove) on very steep trail tracks over a schist scree slope. Turning northwards, you reach a fork at point 2254 on a narrow mountain path crossing the southeast flank of Chlyne Lohner. The path then curves widely southwards down to the huts of Alpschele. Over the alpine terrace, you arrive at a rock band, which you descend very steeply with many zigzag turns to Usser Üschene. The massively towering spur of the Gällihorn is bypassed along the Alpbach. Across meadows and through forest, crossing the alpine road on the way, you descend to the meadows of Eggeschwand. A magnificent promenade leads along the Kander to Bütschels and, passing under the railway line, to Kandersteg train station."

Mountain hiking trail from Ahorni to Usser Üschene. Part of the “Hintere Gasse”, a chain of mountainous passes on the northern flank of the Bernese Alps between Meiringen and Gsteig. A very varied pass hike through the narrow Bunderchrinde from the Engstligental to the Kandertal. 3 km of hard surface at the beginning of the hike, then natural path. Avoid hiking this route in fog or snow.
