The named after a legend 3 sisters are 3 conspicuous, connected peaks in the Upper Rhine Valley, which are visible in good weather already from Lake Constance - 40 to 50 km as the crow flies and from the valley!
The whole mountain is made up of showy, rough and rugged rock that gives the mountain its distinctive appearance. Due to its exposed position in the valley, the summit - as mentioned - is already visible from afar and offers a wonderful panorama from Liechtenstein to Germany.
Attention: I have no idea why, but the main peak - the big sister - has no summit cross, but only a small landmark. (The summit is located exactly on the border between Liechtenstein and Austria)
So if you already go down to the summit crosses, missed the main summit and should turn around, because the middle and little sister can only be reached with free-climbing ;-)

The path to the Three Sisters is a white / blue marked way and requires sure-footedness and a head for heights. There are two shorter iron ladders to tackle along the way, and cool light craps. But the way is not very demanding.
The whole route over the Fürstensteig, the Kuegrat, Garsellakopf and the Drei Schwestern is a very worthwhile and varied hike with great views !!!
The main summit of the Three Sisters has no summit cross and the other two summits have no official route and can only be reached with free-climbing. The main summit of the Three Sisters is located exactly on the border between Liechtenstein and Austria.
