The hike starts at the Sparenmoos parking lot. Over the slightly ascending Nüjeberg plain, the hiking trail leads to the Schiltenegg Alp. From here the terrain becomes somewhat steeper. Via the wide SE ridge you reach the summit of the Hundsrügg (2047 M.a.s.l.). The path continues along the ridge with a fantastic panoramic view. The hiker's view sweeps again and again to the breathtaking Alps such as Stockhorn, the Vaud Alps, Bernese Alps, the Wildstrubel and down to the picturesque Simmental Valley. But above all, the mountain range with the Gastlosen, the Sattelspitzen, the impressive Wandfluh as well as the Zuckerspitz and the Dent de Ruth attract the eye. At the end of the ridge you reach the unattended SAC/CAS Cabane de l'Oberegg. Across alpine pastures and a driveway you arrive at the Jaunpass.

The hike can also be done in the opposite direction.
