    A beautiful "mountain trail" leads past here

    Hiking

    A few meters from the forest path there is a massive strin that marks the summit of the Etschberg.

    Hiking

    The 352-meter-high Etschberg summit is unfortunately unspectacular and doesn't offer any great views. However, the high-altitude trail leads right past it, and if it weren't for a stone marking the summit, you'd simply walk right past it. But it is one of the highest elevations in the area and therefore, of course, a highlight.
