The hiking route starts at the Glaubenbielen parking lot and leads towards Sattelpass further via Miesenegg to Sewenseeli. Above the Sewenseeli there is a small chapel with several resting benches. Enjoy the fantastic wide view here during a longer break – it is worth it. From Sewen you hike uphill again through fascinating moor landscapes to. From there you reach via alpine pastures and forests the Chessimätteli suspension bridge. The 65-metre-long bridge towers high above the Chessloch gorge. So close your eyes and get through it, before there is a short detour of 10 minutes to the Chessiloch waterfall.
