Jatzilicku-Trail

From Saas-Almagell, the trail leads in the direction of the Mattmark dam before turning left at the Zermeiggern equalisation basin up to the Furggtäli. The ascent initially takes place in serpentines through the larch forest before the lonely Furggtal valley opens up and the trail climbs steadily towards the Antrona Pass. The easy trail becomes increasingly rocky and technical. At the Antrona Pass, you reach the Swiss-Italian border and a spectacular view of Italy opens up. The trail leads exposed around the Jazzihorn, here it gets technical and caution is advised. This is followed by a steep and technical downhill into the Ofental valley and down to the Mattmark reservoir, where a large crowd can be expected for the first time. The trail follows along the turquoise-blue water to the dam wall, where the downhill back to Saas-Almagell begins.
