Rise and shine ! The Appenzell farmers have been up for hours ! Make the most of your last day of riding.
Head northeast for lots of gentle climbing and coasting: Appenzell is a natural roller-coaster. Your last climb of the trip will take you to the village of Heiden where you can stop for ice cream and get your first look at the sprawling Lake Constance.
From there turn westward to the medieval city of St. Gallen. You’ll have time to take a stroll: visit the cathedral, window-shop and perhaps even take in the city’s medieval library.
Your overnight is just down the hill. Coast into Romanshorn, turn over your bike to the train station attendant and celebrate your ride across Switzerland.
