For example, instead of hiking up the Gamserrugg, there is a great way to circumnavigate this mountain over the saddle (at 1944 m altitude) on its southwest corner, through great rock and flower landscapes on its south side down to Obersäss (1770 m), via Alti Hütte ( 1575 m) and Vorderstöcken (1440 m) to the Voralp (1217 m) with a mountain inn above the Voralpsee. Then it's uphill again to Gamperfin (1297 m), through the fascinating Gamperfin high moor up to Herti (1397 m) and Ölberg (1432 m), then via Schöntobel (1391 m) down to Oberdorf (1225 m). From there you can take the chairlift down to Wildhaus-Lisighaus. This circuit is 14.4 km long, 390 m uphill and 930 m downhill.

The top station of the Gamserrugg-Bahn offers great starting points for tours in the Churfirsten and perfect views of the Alpstein.
