From the main town of Appenzell in Innerrhoden, the trail climbs to Alp Wasserschaffen. The summit is reached on the Kronberg ridge - parallel to the Alpstein and with a suitably fantastic view. The trail then descends through the rustic alpine landscape to Schwägalp, the valley station of the Säntis cable car.
