The hike first leads to Bruchegg, and from here you take the chairlift up to Hohbiel. Now it takes about one and a half hours to walk across alpine meadows to the ridge and up to the Sparrhorn. The ascent presents no great difficulties and is also suitable for children who are sure-footed.
From the summit of the Sparrhorn at 3021 metres above sea level, a panoramic view opens up: The jags of the Fusshörner are within reach, further down the Oberaletsch glacier can be seen and in the distance the four-thousand-metre peaks of the Matterhorn, Weisshorn, Dom and Monte Rosa, among others, can be seen.
The chairlift to Hohbiel is in operation Thursdays to Sundays during the summer months.
