An absolutely fantastic place. You have to earn it a little, but it's worth it! Great panoramic view of the mountains and Lake Constance. Two wooden huts invite you to take a rest, and everything is available for a barbecue. If you have a sleeping mat and sleeping bag with you, you could also spend the night here. A few meters further on is the Naturfreundehaus, which welcomes guests at the weekend.

The saw pond has (although not always) amazingly clear water and is easy to circumnavigate on a circular route.

My hike is not suitable for prams and has 2-3 steep climbs. Many beautiful all-round views of Lake Constance, Appenzellerland, Hoher Kasten Säntis and Alpstein.
