    Alp Malschüel Undersäss 1478 m
    The Alp Malschüel is located at 1487 m above sea level (Untersäss) and 1777 m above sea level (Obersäss) and has been managed as a mixed cattle, suckler cow and goat alp since the summer of 2011.
    The Alp for the summering of the cattle and mother cows as well as the Goat Friends Association, which summers around 250 goats on Malschüel. The goats are milked in the Mittelsäss and the processing and storage of around 2000 kg of goat cheese takes place in the Untersäss. The Goat Friends Association has set up a modern milking parlor in Mittelsäss and a cheese processing facility in Untersäss.
    By feeding goats, it is hoped that in the long term there will be a reduction in weed infestation, particularly pests and black alders.
    In 2017, the Malschüel shepherd's accommodation was completely renovated for around CHF 550,000.
