Groot - Highest Point in the Canton of Thurgau
With the Groot (991.1 m), we head to the highest elevation in the Canton of Thurgau: literally "the Top of Mostindien." Interestingly, about 10 m further on lies the so-called ridge, which is also the highest point of the elevation. It rises 5 m higher than the Groot and is located entirely in Mosnang, or rather, in the Canton of St. Gallen. On this tour, we explore the idyllic Tössberg region.

Located a few meters below the Groot (996 m), which still belongs to the canton of St. Gallen. Nice view to the east, v.a. to the pilgrimage church St. Iddaburg.
