There is a parking area in Gummsteg, which has space for about ten cars.

This hike is exhausting. Make sure to have hiking equipment, especially good shoes. I recommend doing it during the summer in good weather. There are several official ways along the river.

I started at "Gummsteg" in Steffisburg. After 1.5 hours walking along the river, I took the official way back to the street close to the village "Homberg."The next two hours I walked along the road to the village Eriz. From Eriz, you can take the local bus back to Steffisburg.

Be aware of ticks. Check your body after the hike. Avoid stinging nettle.
