An alternative route here ascends the Sulzfluh and crosses to the Tilisuna Hut in 3hrs 45mins.

Taking the path to the Bilkengrat, wander a short distance into this valley, cross its stream, then climb steeply up the left-hand slope. Passing through a belt of conifers emerge to a stunning view back to the Drei Turme of the Drusenfluh. Continuing the steep climb of the Bilkengrat spur there are consistently fine views to enjoy. You then come to a junction at 1990m where a sign gives 1hr 15mins to the Tilisuna Hut. But the climb is by no means over, for there’s almost 350m yet to gain before reaching the 2336m Schwarze Scharte overlooking the Tilisunasee which lies below in a green basin. The Tilisuna Hut is unseen from here, although it’s only 20mins away. The path now swings round the mountainside, contours for a while, then angles easily down to turn a spur which reveals the hut just below.

The Tilisuna Hut (2211m: Category I) is manned from mid-June to mid-October with 142 places in rooms and dormitories (tel 0664 1107969). Given time and energy on arrival, it would be worth making the ascent of the Sulzfluh – see Route 7.
