Mountain route over Rotsteinpass to Säntis

From Rotsteinpass over the Lisengrat to the summit of Säntis: a hiking delight! The path secured with wire ropes requires good hiking boots, surefootedness, and a head for heights. The hike can be extended to a two-day route with an overnight stay in one of the mountain guesthouses.

The start of the hike is already worthwhile from Unterwasser. Through the Chämmerlitobel with the Thur waterfalls and via Chüeboden, it's not far to Laui. From here, the route continues to Alp Thurwis, where the terrain opens up and the beauty of the south side of Säntis is revealed, then via Schafboden to Rotsteinpass. With a constant view of Säntis with its 123-meter-high antenna tower, the hike continues to the Lisengrat, where a head for heights is required. The balancing act between Alpstein and Toggenburg is breathtaking and impressive in every respect! Via Chalbersäntis and a final steep ascent, the goal is finally reached, and nothing stands in the way of a well-deserved meal with a far-reaching view from Lake Constance over the Alpstein, opposite the Churfirsten, all the way to the Glarus Alps.
