Great panorama from the highest inn in the entire canton of Zurich at 1200m. When the weather is nice you can see paragliders and model airplanes taking off from Alp Scheidegg. The restaurant has a beautiful terrace. In autumn there is also a small kiosk with self-service food and drink.

Highest Alp in the Canton of Zurich. Hiking and MTB destination. Restaurant with a nice terrace. From here down to Josenberg, to Ueberzütt and to Hüttchopf or down to Wolfsgrueb (- then Poalp, Tössscheidi etc.).

Great view and food, as well as always something going on with the "flyers"
