From the starting point at the old schoolhouse Ried (bus stop, parking, WC facilities), the snowshoe trail leads over to the Fankhusbach. It is recommended to put on the snowshoes only after crossing the footbridge.
Now it goes over the plain to the stately farms Unter- and Ober Häusern and across the meadow to Hinter Mühlebach. With a slight ascent you reach Hüserenwald and Hüserenweid. Crossing the pasture and forest gap, the route leads steeply to the former farm Cholerli. On a pleasant forest path with barely any ascent, it now goes over to the Hof Kohlern. The route now leads across the pasture towards Pt. 1170 (highest point) and further to the farm Ober Altösch (restaurant). To the north, the Napf greets with its distinctive mountain house. Opposite to the south, a magnificent view of the Alps opens up.
Now begins the initially gentle descent over the scenic Bisiboden to the farm Neuschür. Here the lovingly decorated snowshoe lodge invites you to rest either inside or on the sun terrace in front of the stately farm. Then you walk northwards to the forest and from there increasingly steeply downwards towards Schneidershausweid. At the large linden tree you enjoy a wonderful view towards Fankhaus, before the last descent leads to the Fankhusbach. Following the brook downhill via Mühlebach and Häusern, you return to the starting point Ried.
