Of course Planplatten on Hasliberg is accessible by cable car, but a circular hike from Bidmi is much more varied.

The hike starts and ends at the intermediate station Bidmi of the Hasliberg-Reuti - Mägisalp gondola. It leads over several alpine pastures off the beaten paths to Planplatten. 

From the intermediate station Bidmi head southeastwards down the street, then over Alp Gwiggi to Winterlücke. From there on the asphalt road up to Moosbielen, further to Schlafbielen. Up to Alp Schlafbielen you are hiking on alpine roads, from there the path narrows to the mountain hiking trail, which we follow for the last 300 meters of altitude. The view is impressive and becomes increasingly impressive. On Planplatten we can stop at the Alpentower and take the gondola down. For those who want it even sportier, go southwards down to Gummenalp, always with the Engel- and Wetterhörner in view. At Gummenalp we meet the Muggenstutzweg, popular with families, and soon reach the intermediate station Bidmi again.
