Slightly away from Lake Constance, this cycle path passes through beautiful apple orchards. On the Swiss side, you can see the Alps rising up on the horizon.

The prism shaped tower looks cool and offers views of Lake Constance and the mountain range. There are towers in Thurgau with more spectacular views, such as the Stählibuck and the Napoleon Tower, but the short climb is definitely worth it.

The Amriswil trade association had the trade tower built at the (almost) highest point (497m) of the Schollenberg (2012). https://www.amriswil.ch/naherurlaub/12243

In the middle of the forest, the forest tavern suddenly appears. A welcome opportunity to strengthen the hungry and thirsty cyclist or hiker.

The Amriswil industrial tower was built for the centenary of the Amriswil trade association and financed by it. The tower, made of wood in 2012, is 19.5 meters high and 90 steps lead to the viewing platform at a height of 15.25 meters. From here you have a beautiful view of the entire area up to Lake Constance.
