Where smugglers and muleteers once roamed, there are still easily accessible trails today. In a varied circular hike, the Smugglers' Trail leads over the St. Antönier Joch (2,379 m) past the Gafiersee (2,290 m) to the Gafierjoch (2,415 m). There is plenty to discover on this circular hike through the border area between Austria and Switzerland – including shy mountain dwellers such as marmots, chamois and ibex.
