HikingMount Säntis and Schwägalp are at the centre of a large network of footpaths, with satisfaction guaran-teed for ”novices“ and experienced mountain-walkers alike. A gentle stroll or short mountain tour will take you right to the heart of this incomparable region, where Switz-erland is still at its most original.
Nordic WalkingSchwägalp is the perfect Nordic fit-ness centre with two local trails and a connection to the large Appenzell Nordic Fitness Park. You can hire Nordic walking sticks from the Berg-hotel Schwägalp shop.Price: CHF 7.00 EUR 4.40

Schwägalp/Säntis Nature Discovery Park Starting at Schwägalp at the foot of Mount Säntis, the Nature Discovery Park combines tourism, research and nature conservation. It offers numerous options for guided tours, interesting activity programmes or even open-air teaching.
Nature trailsThe different nature trails invite you on a voyage of discovery. A series of signposts takes you to the main sights, and information boards are set up at points of special interest. The main trails are: Moorlands, Man & Environment, Forest, and Alpine Farming.
Geology ParkThe adventure begins right next to Berghotel Schwägalp. The Geology Park set up around a spiral path re-veals the secrets of the alpine rock going back millions of years and ex-plains the habitat of that time com-plete with its inhabitants.
