The starting point of the new forest road connection is in the village centre of Mühlbach. From there, follow the paved Valserweg towards Vals. At first, the route climbs alongside the stream and gradually leads to higher ground.
After a while, you will reach a wooden bridge. Cross it to join a wide forest road leading through the woodland. From this point, the gradient becomes noticeably gentler and the route continues to an access road.
Follow this road to the Untereggerhof, where you briefly join the main road. Then continue along the pavement beside the reservoir and towards the Valsegg Chalets.
The forest road connection continues to the edge of Vals. Here you will find the Jochtal cable car and several places to stop for refreshments.
