You start the Kesch Trek on the Flüela Pass. From the bus stop Susch, Chantsura you hike to the newly renovated Grialetsch hut. You can also start the stage in Dürrboden in the Dischma valley and walk from there to the hut (approx. 2h). Both variants are well suited as an introduction to the long-distance hike.
