This hike starts at the car park in Niederhai's hamlet of Lehen. From there you walk along the winter hiking trail towards Tellerboden. You turn left into the signposted "Tauferbergrundgang" forest trail after about 50 meters and follow the forest path until you reach the next branch-off. Always keep to the right and continue along the forest route until it joins a narrow footpath. The snowshoe tour starts right here. Continue through the wooded area of Tauferbergwald towards Mauslasattel. From there the wide forest trail takes you back down to the football field and starting point of the snowshoe hiking tour.
