Here you have a gigantic view of the Saxerlücke. The ridge path from Hoher Kasten is well developed and secured with ropes where necessary. It's more relaxing if you don't have a head for heights. Good footwear and sure-footedness required. When there is fog in the Rhine Valley, mystical atmospheres arise here.

View from Chreialpfirst to Altmann

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Altmann is just one of many mountain massifs that can be admired from the Chreialpfirst. This mountain scenery is really super fascinating.

The way from Wildhaus on the Zwinglipass to Chreialpirst is technically a simple way, in which one encounters no exposed areas. The Zwinglipass is a well-developed path and leads in serpentine high to Chreialpfirst. The Chreialpfirst itself is a very wide Alprücken with fantastic views of the surrounding mountain massifs.

Lysengrat Ridge

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

The views from the Lisengratweg are fantastically beautiful. Before the first time I had a little hesitation, if I could handle it ..... but thanks to the good and many wire rope securing devices, it was not a problem at all, on the contrary, the way was really fun for me. Also, the ridge is not as I had feared, narrow and just a ridge ...... there is enough space. The exposed areas, of which there are already some, are not at the top of the ridge, but to the side of it and secured with wire ropes, where you can hold on.

Säntis Summit (2,502 m)

Highlight • Summit

At 2,502 meters, the Säntis is the highest mountain in the Alpstein Mountains. The Säntis lies on the border between the cantons of Appenzell Innerrhoden, Aargau, and St. Gallen. The mountains are composed of limestone and marl. The cable car takes hikers from Schwägalp up the mountain. Even in June, snow lies here and temperatures are icy. From the Säntis, you can enjoy a panoramic view of the Alpstein Mountains, the Appenzellerland, Lake Lucerne, and Lake Constance.
