Panoramic circular tour with summit happiness for families from the Kronberg mountain station or alternatively via Berggasthaus Scheidegg, a day-long and robust circular hike. Always with the Säntis and the Alpstein panorama stretching far into the Glarus Alps in front of you. A rather quiet circuit away from the hustle and bustle on the easily accessible Kronberg.
