Juliane Pflumm with panda (from 12.03.19):

The hike starts at the car park in the Bruggerenwald above Urnäsch and is also marked as an official snowshoe tour from here. The trail leads first through the forest, then over the ridge and along the ridge to the Hochalp: from here there is a fantastic view of the snow-covered Appenzellerland and the Säntis massif. The mountain inn is not open regularly in winter. On the other side of the cauldron, you descend again in open terrain.

The hike is 5km long and has 360 metres of altitude difference, so it is easy to do, even if the ascent is a bit strenuous. But the great view makes it worth it in any case.

The route lies in the wildlife resting area, so you have to keep your lines on.
