Ebenalp/Appenzellerland Overview

The aerial cableway from Wasserauen (868m above sea level) to the Ebenalp (1644m above sea level) has existed since 1955 and attracts up to 200,000 visitors a year. The summit station of the aerial cableway situated on the high plateau of the Ebenalp is the starting point for many wonderful and relaxing walks in the Alpstein region. The mountain offers wonderful vantage-points, cosy and well run mountain inns on and near the Ebenalp. The two ski lifts on the mountain, as well as a ski lift with lighting for night skiing in the valley, combine to form the most varied winter sports facilities in the Appenzell.
