Description

The beautiful hiking trail leads through the Tristel area up to the Gigenstafel.

Here benches invite you to linger and offer a beautiful view over the valley.

You then hike downhill through the St.-Anna-Schutzwald forest.

In front of the village Hospental you pass the gallows.

This former execution site is one of the few remaining in Switzerland. Place of power: The St.

Anna-Alp and the Gigenstafel offer the opportunity to connect with the landscape and its forces on two Alps.

Another point to pause for a moment is St.

Annabach.

It is particularly easy to observe from the picnic area.

The places of power along this route also appeal to those who are simply looking for a natural experience. equipment * Clothing according to the weather * Good footwear * Hiking poles are recommended * Binoculars * Camera * Daypack
