The Speer, one of the striking mountains at the end of the Lint plain, is worth climbing as an alpine destination. The view is really impressive, as is the ascent of easy paths or via ferrata for those with experience in alpine skiing.

Hiking

There are three approaches to the summit: the mountain hiking trail from Alp Oberchäseren, the ridge hiking trail and the via ferrata. So don't be alarmed by the sometimes hair-raising pictures. I have added a picture that shows the situation.

Mountaineering

Not only is the Speer the king of the foothills of the Alps, it is also Europe's highest Nagelfluhberg. And a scenic mountain like in a picture book. At an altitude of 1950 meters above sea level, you can see as far as Lake Constance from here on a clear day.
