A steep ascent leads up the Schlappintobel and through the forest into the Saas Alpine region. On the Rätschenjoch, sweeping views open up to the north and south. Scattered settlements are reminders that the Walser people cultivated inhospitable and remote areas in the late Middle Ages.

Directions
The exact directions can be found in the book "Walserweg Graubünden", Rotpunktverlag. The route is consistently signposted with the route number 35. However, description and signaling do not replace a hiking map.
The Walserweg Graubünden with 23 stages was initiated by the geographer and author Irene Schuler and realized together with the cultural and language organization of the Walser Association Graubünden (Switzerland).
