Description
The trail is nowhere interrupted, exposed or dangerous. If the uphill stretches make you uncomfortable, you can hike the tour in the opposite direction. The views of the Rhine Valley deep below and of the Alpstein mountains are spectacular in both directions of the tour.
Having arrived at the summit, an extraordinary panorama is revealed. The new revolving restaurant on the Appenzell vantage point mountain also offers all-round fascination.
