On reaching the solitary alm building of Obere Röbialpe at 1913m, the path descends beside it, cuts down the right flank of a spur, then more steeply to Untere Röbialpe and a junction. Both options lead to Gargellen. The right branch cuts along the edge of woodland, then goes through it. Over a stream you then wander through a meadow to another farm and barn, then descend again into forest where a signed path slopes to the right and moments later you gain a direct view onto the village. A footpath takes you over a stream at the outflow from a gorge, and across a final meadow enters Gargellen (3hrs 15mins from the Tilisuna Hut).

Gargellen (1423m) has a range of hotels, apartments and private rooms, a supermarket, post office and tourist information (tel 05557 6303). Buses go from here to St Gallenkirch in the Montafon valley.

The Lindauer Hut makes a popular destination for a day-walk, as well as a good base for climbing a variety of peaks, and an overnight halt for walkers on the Rätikon Höhenweg. The following approach is one of the easiest; a delight of grassy alms, woodland and fine views.
