View of Leistchamm Summit

Highlight • Summit

The Leistchamm is an alpine not demanding summit, which is very well from Amden, from Starkenbach a little more elaborate, as much further, to reach. Best view guaranteed ...

Flügenspitz

Highlight • Summit

The ascent to the Flügenspitz is easy and pleasant even on nice and warm days, as there are always shady forest sections. During the entire ascent you have a beautiful view of the Arvenbüel, you just have to turn around every now and then! At the top you will also be surprised with a great view towards Säntis / Wildhaus.

On a wide gravel path, you can leisurely walk past expansive meadows and fully enjoy the mountain world. Depending on the season, lots of colorful flowers bloom along the path - which makes the landscape even more beautiful.
