Starting A Trek Of The Alpstein



Although Switzerland is a picturesque country no matter where you go, the Appenzell will astound you with its beauty. Well worth spending some time in the valley below, looking at all the painted houses, but first, let's grab a cable car from Wasserauen and take the ride high up to Ebenalp.

There, you must take the quick detour for a morning coffee at the cliff-hugging Aescher restaurant. Sitting on it's sun terrace under the looming cliffs is a great way to start a day of hiking, and the scramble through the Wildkirchli Cave is an interesting way to approach any restaurant.
