Anyone who appreciates breathtaking views as well as peace away from the crowds will find the Sonnenberg Rellerli a perfect destination. The Sonnenberg attracts with an unmarked snowshoe trail. A winter hiking trail from Schönried to the Rellerli and back is also prepared. In places, the winter hiking trail and the snowshoe route follow the same path. Those who have had enough of the powder snow can switch to the winter hiking trail at these sections.

The ascent starts from Schönried via Bodme to the Rellerli. The route then continues up the Hugeligrat and down to Grossi Vorschess. On the way at Grossi Vorschess, there is a wooden fondue caquelon and a barbecue site, which are open all year round. Here you can enjoy your own brought fondue in a unique setting.
