Lägernsattel Ridge Trail

Highlight • Trail

Beautiful rock formations can be found here, and the view extends on both sides. There are two paths that you can take at the end. One leads over the ridge, so you should be sure-footed and not afraid of heights - great for climbers. The other path is easy, you pass a beautiful barbecue area, and both paths meet at Schartenfels. Here you can look at the remains of the castle or stop off at the Schartenfels restaurant and enjoy the great view of Baden.

Lägerngrat Ridge Trail

Highlight • Trail

The Lägerngrat is a rocky ridge path. Often surrounded by greenery, which could hide the abyss a little and give false security. This way definitely requires surefootedness and a head for heights. The trail is considered T3 and is not too crazy now, but it is a very interesting and varied, slightly tricky trail. The path often leads through beautiful forested terrain, but always reveals beautiful views over the Swiss plateau. This ridge trail is a worthwhile experience.
