  • Höhenprofil

    An easy panoramic circuit from the mountain station of Bezau cable car to the "Niedere Höhe" and the "Vordere Niederealpe".

    Andelsbuch’s very own mountain – the “Niedere” – is known not only for its magnificent view from Lake Constance as far as the swiss mountains: paragliders also appreciate its fantastic thermal currents. When the weather is good, you can see them floating like bright butterflies around the mountain and across the valley.
