From the Zweisimmen station, take the bus to the starting point at the DAO Sparenmoos seminar house. From there, the route gently descends northeast to Site Alp, where a breathtaking view of the Simmental opens up. At Site Alp, the little restaurant invites you to a cozy break. The return route leads uphill southwest over a ridge back to the DAO Sparenmoos seminar house.
