Alpine Route Tour Day 9: Weesen -> Appenzell

Sip coffee from the deck and watch the sun burn off the fog surrounding the lake. It’s then off to some last climbs through Appenzell.

This is perhaps how you’ve imagined Switzerland: neat little houses perched on manicured alps, men cutting grass with scythes, blooming flowers decorating tidy villages. How do the fields and farmhouses stay so immaculate ? Even the Swiss will concede that the Appenzellers are a tad obsessive. Nevermind: it’s a cyclists paradise.

You will make your way through Appenzell’s most beautiful valleys with the Santis mountain always in the foreground. It’s an Appenzell icon and we’ll skirt its base before heading off to the pasture lands.

You will stay in the small city of Appenzell. This is a very popular destination for tour groups, but you will probably arrive late afternoon and have the streets, shops and beer gardens to yourself.
