Dear hiking buddies.

for some time now i wanted to do the barefoothike in Appenzell, here is some info about it:

https://www.appenzell.ch/de/sommer/wandern/themenwanderwege/barfussweg.html

Of course there is the option to walk with shoes next to the designated path.

Since the orginal route is only 5.3 kilometers i created a hike around.

Barefoot hike is at the start, then we go up the mountain close to there and have a ridge hike for around 2 hours.

Some huts are also on the way.
End of the hike will again be in Gontenbad.


Time Frame:

10:00 meet and start

18:30 back at the station Gontenbad


Meeting point:

train station Gontenbad


Hike:

1000 height meters, 23Km, mostly on the ridge, not many trees



Picnic:

Picnic along the way


Equipment:

Bring enough water and sun protection.

There could be short periods of rain during the day.

Bring a small towel to clean your feet after the barefoot part.



Application:

As always there is the possibility to come by car.

Join the car pool and either create a car yourself or have a look who can take you there.

For those who come by public transport please create a "car" in the carpool with around 30 seats and use "public transport" as a description. That way others can join that one and we keep a good overview.

If that one is full, create another one with 30 seats please.


No maximum number of participants.

Please be aware that you join at your own risk.

Light rain announced, not the whole day but every now and then. Please bring rain clothes. There is still hope for some sun.
