On the Eggen-Höhenweg you can even see the Black Forest, Urschweiz and Vorarlberg when the visibility is good. Here one lookout point follows the next: the Schäflisegg, Kuenzenegg, Hüslersegg, Waldegg and Üsseregg with a wonderful view of the Appenzell hills and the Alpstein massif.

Hiking

The Eggerhöheweg runs over four hills: Waldegg, Kuenzenegg, Hüsleregg, Schäflisegg.
Teufen and Speicher are in the canton of Appenzell Ausserrhoden, as is the entire high-altitude trail except for the border stone, which lies to the north of the trail. The areas north of the hike are border areas of the canton of St. Gallen.
