The original from Weissbad in Appenzell! The Bärli-Biber or s'Biberli, as I personally call it, is probably known by every Swiss person. It is made here in Weissbad – the recipe dates back to a tradition of over 500 years, wow!

If you come by here on your bike, you can boost your sugar levels again in the shop and the Bärli-Biber-Welt. Here you get the freshest Biberli straight from the oven!

Potersalp–Unterkamm Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

A majestic sight of the Alpstein when you come out of the forest - a great reward! The Potersalp section is fantastically beautiful, but the gravel is much coarser and looser than before in the forest. With the racing bike / gravel bike demanding but feasible. The section is also quite short. Slightly wider tires and good condition naturally help. If the surface is wet / damp, I would recommend a mountain bike or a bike with a good profile.

View of the Säntis North Face

Highlight • Viewpoint

From here, you can see the north face of the Säntis, including the LSB (Long Distance Ski Area) from Schwägalp. The large and modern Hotel Säntis is also located here.
On August 1st, you can also see the 80x80 m Swiss flag, if it is actually there (weather permitting).

Alpstein in All Its Glory

Highlight • Viewpoint

Alpstein in Appenzellerland
In addition to its three mountain lakes, 24 mountain inns, and six cable cars, the Alpstein boasts the densest hiking network in Switzerland. Nature lovers can choose from countless trails – from easy strolls to challenging mountain hikes. To ensure the trails are always well-maintained and maintained, a trail maintenance team is on hand, assisted by the mountain innkeepers. The gently rolling hills of Appenzellerland are ideal for valley hikes. Various themed trails are available, including a barefoot trail. Those looking to rest have plenty of opportunities: over 400 benches in Appenzell Innerrhoden invite you to take a breather.
