Introducción
Por el antiguo camino de la iglesia se atraviesa el Tüfenberg con vistas panorámicas a Schönengrund, con posadas tradicionales. Más allá de Tüfibach (frontera cantonal), la antigua carretera Toggenburger Landstrasse conduce hacia la región de San Galo, al antiguo prebostazgo de St. Peterzell.
Descripción
Urnäsch is known for its traditions: One example of these is the “Alpabfahrt”, which is an important festival for farmers. This is when the cattle are driven ceremonially down from the alpine pastures. Anyone interested in this topic can take a detour in Urnäsch to the Museum of Appenzeller Traditions.
After leaving the village, you climb up to Hintereggli. The last few metres of the ascent are across meadows. A bench with a panoramic view invites you to take a break at the highest point of the hike. You then begin a leisurely descent to Schönengrund. The village was an important textile manufacturer until the start of the First World War. Around half of the world’s embroidery production came from the region around St. Gallen at this time.
When you reach Schönengrund, you’ll have completed around two-thirds of the hike, and the final hour begins. This includes barely any gains in elevation. You walk past a fishpond at Tüfi and a chicken farm slightly above the main road. This is where you cross the cantonal border to St. Gallen. St. Peterzell, the destination of this hike, was once a popular stop on the Way of St. James. The small village consists of the former monastery church of St. Peters, pretty gabled houses typical of Toggenburg and the large Red House with its baroque ornamental painting.
