With a high alpine atmosphere, lasting impressions and spectacular views.

2-day circular hike in the alpine ambience of the highest Glarus mountains.

A weekend that makes alpine hikers' hearts beat faster: This two-day circular hike leads through the high alpine world of the Glarus Alps - with magnificent views of the Tödi and the surrounding glaciers. A special highlight: a night at the Claridenhütte SAC (2453 m) - in keeping with the almost full moon night (full moon: August 9, 2025), which bathes the mountain world in mystical light.

The ascent begins with the scenic Clariden high trail to the Fiseten Pass (2033 m). Via pastures, scree paths and past the picturesque Gletscherseli under the north face of the Clariden, we reach our destination for the day: the Claridenhütte. On the way, the views over the Urnerboden - the largest cow pasture in Switzerland - are impressive.

On the second day, we ascend early in the morning light - to where the glacier has retreated. A new landscape emerges between moraine debris and pioneer plants. The trail continues over boulder terrain to the Gemsfairenjoch (2846 m) and to the summit of the Gemsfairenstock (2971 m) - a logical highlight of this alpine hike. The descent is via the Rundloch back to the Fisetenpass. Finally, the little Fisetenbähnli train takes us comfortably down to Urnerboden.

An eventful weekend with a high alpine atmosphere, lasting impressions and spectacular views.
