A circular route through the pre-Alpine Appenzell landscape with the peaks around Mount Säntis as backdrop. On your hike through partially protected intact natural countryside, you'll be almost alone on the Alpine meadows. Half-way along is Schwägalp, from where the cable car to the summit of Mount Säntis departs.
