Description
In 1995, the chairlift from Schönengrund to Hochhamm was shut down. As a result, the mountain disappeared from the lists of classic excursion destinations and was somewhat forgotten. However, the mountain has not lost its charm with its magnificent views over the Appenzell hill landscape and the Alpstein massif; on the contrary. On clear days, Lake Constance can even be seen from the summit. Once there, the Hochhamm mountain inn with its large viewing terrace invites you to linger. Beautifully designed fireplaces just below the Hochhamm are perfect rest stops for families.
