From Blankenburg near Zweisimmen the road winds up to the parking “Tschachtlere”, 1540 m above sea level. If you follow the street you will reach Fromattläger Alp (1860 m) after ca. 45 min, and its Alp Restaurant Q-hof after another 5 min. Wonderful view to the west and to the north.

If you take the mountain path through the wood you will reach the Fromatt SAC cabin (1800 m, open on summer weekends) after 30 min. Impressively situated below the Spillgerten mountain it features a lovely terrace with a nice view towards Saanenmöser.

Next to the Simmen Falls up to the Sieben Brünnen (Seven Wells). Starting at the inn at the foot of the Simmen Falls, the route climbs steeply along the thunderous ravine. After 300 meters of altitude difference it becomes flat, after the mountain inn Sieben Brünnen you stand at the foot of a rock face over which and from which the water of the Plaine Morte glacier rushes.
