    From the Sautens church, you walk leisurely to the Three Churches View and further to the barbecue area "Goaßtalbrunnen". Follow the forest road in switchbacks through the forest to the junction towards Maisalm.  The beautiful forest path passes by the Reichenbachalm (not operated) to the Maisalm. At the pasture, you will be rewarded for the ascent with a wonderful view of the Inn Valley, Roppen, and the Pitztal.
