    Tips

    At Ober Hamberg there is a beautiful vantage point with two benches. The path is a dead end, but it is worth taking a little detour up there and taking a break on the benches under the trees and enjoying the view of Toggenburch and the Alpstein.

      Yes, I can only agree with Werner. The hiking boots look like a pig afterwards and feel a lot heavier than usual from the weight of the earth that sticks to them. But would still climb up because of the view.

        The path does not lead all the way up, but the steep climb across the meadow that follows after the dead end is very worthwhile. Luckily it's not always muddy either 😉

          A worthwhile detour up the distinctive hill. Meadow can be a little dirty.

            It is also called the Hill of Tears; the maids from the surrounding farms would go there to cry when they were homesick.
