A round trip to the typical farms
We leave from the Hotel Rosental and follow the itinerary to the natural swimming pond (mar 14), where we turn right shortly after, to get to a mountain path uphill. Now we cross 2 times the asphalted road and get to the farm Pliedererhof (1150 m), from where we follow upwards the access road of the farm, along the current of a small brook. It leads us to the Hotel Tulperhof (1627 m), which is located in a fabulous position for enjoying the panorama of the whole valley. (Its also the starting position for parachutists) From the farm Tulper, we walk slightly uphill on the road in eastern direction to the farm Heroler (1643 m)(highest point of the itinerary) The way back follows the mark number 3, which goes down on the mountain road with numerous hairpin turns through the woods, until we get to the street, which we have to cross, reaching the farm Lochler. Then we follow the street, turning left at the hairpine turn and follow the mark 3 until we reach the brook Gfasebach, which we follow downwards to Lüsen.

Variant
Next to the farm Heroler, we follow the forestry road, which goes uphill through the woods. We reach the alpine zone Tulper Gamis (1806 m). The path (mark 3) leads us along the alpine biotope on our left, to the path Grieblsteig, which goes in eastern direction to the old mountain hut Höllealm (1821 m) and then either to Kreuzwiese, or if we turn right, in southern direction downhill to the refuge Bacheralm (1810 m). Afterwards we follow the path (mark 5), which sometimes goes steep downhill, to get to the abandoned farm Gargitt (1531 m). Now we follow the track, which will lead us to the forestry road, then we turn left to the Hotel Lüsnerhof and after that, we walk downwards on the old street of the village, until we are in Lüsen. Height metres 890, 10 km, 6 hrs.

Along the ancient hay tracks to the mountain pastures of Lüsen
Before the engine has been invented, the hay harvest was brought down in the valley with slays during the wintertime, even if it was extremely dangerous. Starting from the Hotel Lüsnerhof, we have to follow the path, on the left side of the brook, and then the forestry road through the woods until we arrive at the abandoned farm Gargitt (1531m). There is a wonderful resting spot, located next to the farm, where we can inhale the relaxing smell of wormwood and enjoy the fabulous view of the valley of Lüsen. After our short break we follow the path downhill, until we get to the street, which will bring us back to our starting point. 1,5 hrs, height metres 370 m, 3 km.

Continuation to the mountain hut Kreuzwiesenhütte:
From the farm Gargitt we continue on the ancient hay road (mark 5) to the alpine hut Bacher Alm (1810 m). Once we are there, we follow the path in eastern direction until we arrive at the mountain hut Kreuzwiesenhütte (1909 m). We walk back either on the steeper but shorter path next to the mountain hut Gosten alm or in alternative on the more comfortable but longer mountain path Schmelzhaussteig (mark 2A-2) to get to the parking lot Schweiger Böden. From here we walk on the forestry road in direction of Flitt and on the street Höferstraße to Rungg/Lüsnerhof.
