    Hiking

    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.

    Snowshoeing

    There is a small bench near the antenna to enjoy the view.

    Nice view of the lowlands and Schönengrund, not much to see towards the mountains due to the forest.
