From mountain train to mountain train, from lake to lake - the Five-Lakes-Hike on Mt Pizol is a classic and is considered one of Switzerland's most beautiful high Alpine tours. Pizol means high peak in Romansh but these days there is luckily a modern aerial cable car that brings one up to the 2227-meter-high summit.

Just like a unpenetrable fortress the Alpsteinmassiv juts out high above the undulating hills of the Appenzell: its highest point is 2502-meter-high Mount Säntis. The ride in the gondola is breath-taking: take in Lake Constance, the Vorarlberg, the Graubünden, Glarus and Bernese Alps. On a clear day one can even see the Vosges Mountains and the Black Forest.

The Hoher Kasten has been accessible via an aerial cable car since 1964. In a few minutes one glides from Brülisau to the peak at 1,795 meters, famous for its panoramic view. The ride alone offers a fascinating view of the hills of Appenzellerland and the majestic Alpstein. From 2008 onwards you will be able to admire the panorama also from the new revolving restaurant.
