We took the first cable car up at 7am, and after a short 1h walk arrived to this place. It was changing from complete white out to clear sky for a minute, and then getting white again for an hour. Nevertheless, I took quite a lot of photos in this weather, as it felt so magical with the mist partially covering this beautiful rock formation. To get to this point of view, we had to walk along exposed ridges on a narrow path, in very wet and knee deep grass. Definitely, an #adventure worth waking up for.
NO EDITING: while a hike of 20 KM.....great view at a great day. At the restaurant Hoher Hirschberg in the beautiful District Appenzell
