                         We are
            the destination of your journey.

Mount Säntis is the highest mountain in eastern Switzerland. The Säntis
cable car starts out from Schwägalp, which is easy to reach throughout the
year without a Swiss motorway toll sticker using well-maintained roads
that are kept clear of snow in winter. There is plenty of free parking at the
cable car base station (including bus and disabled parking bays).

Public transport
By train to Urnäsch or Nesslau. Then by post bus straight to the base station.
