Challenging mountain hike (T2-T3), from Grön (parking lot) through the Justistal. Shortly before the Sichle the mountain path (red/white) marked turns left, then follows a short difficult section requiring surefootedness. The mountain path leads you in several switchbacks to the Burst. The sweat drops shed are rewarded with an unrivaled panoramic view. The return route leads you via hinders Schafläger to the Schneide. Here the actual descent begins. Past the shepherd’s hut a steep mountain path leads down to the Alp grosser Mittelberg and back through the Justistal to the starting point Grön.
