Enjoy a tour of the idyllic region of Appenzellerland by cable car

Enjoy a lovely excursion to the idyllic region of Eastern Switzerland. This tour will start with a short city tour through the upcoming, trendy district of Zurich west. Via the University and the Museum of Art, we get right into the heart of the Old Town. You will pass the beautiful Limmatquai and the Fraumunster Church, before reaching the Lake of Zurich.

There will be a great shopping opportunity at the outlet-shop of the famous Lindt & Sprungili Chocolate Factory. The journey then takes you to Rapperswil, which is well-known for its medieval castle, before you reach the picturesque village of Appenzell.

In the town on Appenzell, you will take a guided walk through the small town with its lovely, old, painted houses. You will have about one hour of free time to discover the town at your leisure! The pedestrian zone with its beautiful facades allows an opportunity for strolling and shopping.

After a short drive to Brulisau, an aerial cable car will take you to the top of Mountain Hoher Kasten (1800 m/6000 ft) where you will experience breathtaking views over the green and hilly Appenzellerland, the Rhine Valley and the Vorarlberg (Austria). You will also be able to visit the new revolving restaurant.

On the way back to Zurich, you will visit the cheese factory at Stein, where the famous Appenzeller cheese is made!
