Hello Ron! Thank you for this masterpiece. I am thinking of doing the same hike myself in June with my father. Could you please tell me how long this hike took you and should you have any tips, we would appreciate it a lot! Neither of us are experienced hikers but we have strong willpower and doing this is both a dream for me and my father. Once again, gorgeous views, thank you very much for sharing your experience!
It's nice that you liked it so much, but it's also really a wonderful spot for hiking. Never seen so many great views and hiking trails with such a grandiose landscape bundled on maybe 20x10km, the Alpstein is already very exposed in the otherwise quite flat surrounding area, which makes it appear larger and mightier than it actually is with its maximum of 2500m. There are also many detailed descriptions of this hike on the Internet, you should always keep in mind that the path is classified in T3, which you notice at the end, because it gets very rugged in parts and you often have to look for the actual path, but you always has the Säntis as a goal in mind anyway. Basically you should be fit and in some places sure-footed and not afraid of heights.
