--- title: "Rosswald: On old military trails to Folluhorn and Fülhorn" url: "https://www.brig-simplon.ch/en/tour/rosswald-on-old-military-trails-to-folluhorn-and-fuelhorn" description: "From the mountain station of the Rosswald cable car (1819 m above sea level), the path leads up to the chapel Maria zum Guten Rat. Follow the hiking trail markers and ascend the zigzag path alongside Folluhorn to the summit. Once there, it is also worth taking the detour to Fülhorn. For this path, you should definitely be free from dizziness and sure-footed. Below Fülhorn, the path descends in several switchbacks until it meets the Alpenpässeweg and then leads gently towards Fleschboden. Alternative from Folluhorn: If you want to start the return journey from Folluhorn, hike cross-country towards the Stafel ski lift, down the Stafel slope to the artificially created snowmaking lake. Note: swimming is prohibited. Continue hiking towards Fleschboden. Here a stop at the restaurant with panoramic terrace is recommended. The path then leads downhill further to Rosswald mountain station.
