    Tips

    Hiking

    From the Höchst summit 2024 m above sea level. M. you can enjoy a wonderful panoramic view and especially the view down into the Seeztal with Walensee is terrific.

    The ascent from Voralp via Naus leads via technically simple paths, but in a steady and relatively steep climb up to the summit.

    The way from Nideri to Höchst is the much more demanding way to the Höchst; surefootedness and a head for heights are required here. This section leads over earthy, narrow paths in sloping terrain and dry conditions are definitely recommended here!

    Attractive spring tour from Vorabsee, view of the Gamsberg on the descent, only take the path on the west flank in good conditions.
