The Route Description

Appenzell is a beautiful region in the north-eastern corner of Switzerland and embodies rural romance to it. While you are in the area you would be visually treated by the visit to the farms that are scattered and situated on hilly green pastures framed by pockets of forest and grazing cows. As you take in the idyllic landscape dotted with grazing horned Braunvieh cattle, you might think that you’ve landed in one of the happiest places in the area. The Alpstein mountain range which forms the backdrop of the Appenzell region offers spectacular views for those who desire to take a hike and would be rewarded by magnificent and surprisingly accessible routes. You can also enjoy using the numerous aerial cableways that offer a bird’s eye view of the place. If you are a camping enthusiast then this is also the place for you as you can set up camp and enjoy anytime. If you are visiting at the right time of the year then you can also visit the Folk Musical Festival. Do not forget to enjoy the delicious meat and cheese dishes offered by the various restaurants here. Early morning visit can also earn you the right to some extraordinary coffee as well.
