The path from Gasthaus Tierwies to Säntis is a very beautiful section and always leads over rocky ground. You can scramble a little bit :-) and I just like to be able to walk over rocky ground.
However, the path from Tierwies has significantly fewer exposed spots than the section from Schwägalp to the Tierwies inn. Due to the many hikers, the rocks are partly a bit worn and therefore a bit slippery, but no problem with a little caution. In addition, from Gasthaus Tierwies you are also beautiful in the sun. The lower part (Schwägalp - Tierwies), on the other hand, is very shady and from the perspective of the view, the upper part is much more beautiful and attractive to walk on.

Slightly demanding path through a beautiful barren rocky landscape - those who are good on their way in alpine terrain will enjoy it.
