The Hochwacht is easy to reach via a forest road and offers a restaurant and a very nice view.

The Lägerngrat is a rocky ridge path. Often surrounded by greenery, which could hide the abyss a little and give false security. This way definitely requires surefootedness and a head for heights. The trail is considered T3 and is not too crazy now, but it is a very interesting and varied, slightly tricky trail. The path often leads through beautiful forested terrain, but always reveals beautiful views over the Swiss plateau. This ridge trail is a worthwhile experience.

Lägerngrat Ridge Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

This section requires a head for heights, but the more exposed part of the Lägerngrat begins after the Lägernsattel. Technically, this path is a T3 - not too crazy, but it definitely requires a head for heights and surefootedness.

Burghorn

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Burghorn is one of the highest points on the narrow ridge of the warehouses. From this vantage point you have a fantastic view to the south of the Appenzeller Alps, the Glarus Alps, the Uri Alps and up to the four-thousanders of the Bernese Alps. The small bank invites you for a short break.
