Höch Hirschberg, Mountain summit in Appenzell Ausserrhoden, Switzerland
The Höch Hirschberg reaches an elevation of 1168 meters, offering views across the East Swiss Pre-Alps and surrounding valleys of Appenzell.
The mountain has marked the natural boundary between Appenzell Ausserrhoden and Appenzell Innerrhoden regions since their territorial separation in 1597.
The Berggasthaus Hoher Hirschberg mountain inn preserves Swiss culinary traditions through seasonal dishes and regional specialties prepared by local families.
Multiple hiking trails lead to the summit, with designated parking areas at the base and regular train connections from major Swiss cities.
The mountain location enables visitors to observe the intersection of three distinct Swiss ecosystems within a single panoramic viewpoint.
