Tips

The Hochhamm (1,275 m) is Schönengrund's local mountain and can be reached on foot from the village in about an hour.

On the Hochhamm summit you will find a transmission tower and there are two benches set up in two different directions. The view over the hilly country offers beautiful views. The view towards the Alpstein is blocked up here because of the wooded terrain, but it is still a very beautiful vantage point and above all the entire ridge path that leads over the Hochhamm is a very beautiful path.

Ideal for a small round, good food in the restaurant.

Such a beautiful place, here you have a view of the Alps and Lake Constance, and when the weather is nice you can see the Feldberg
