The Sellamatt–Zinggen Trail leads in a large loop over the Alp Sellamatt, a high plateau that lies in front of the Churfirsten at half height between the valley and the summit. The rough karst landscape is pierced by numerous caves where the legendary Wildmannli once hid. Under the winter snow cover, the spruce-lined alpine pastures present their gentle side. Peace and untouched nature characterize the landscape. Uphill, the characteristic seven peaks of the Churfirsten are in view. On the return way, the Alpstein with the Säntis and the impressive Wildhauser Schafberg rise behind the alpine landscape. The start point at Alp Sellamatt is reached with the gondola from Alt St. Johann. The route ends at the cozy Zinggen pub.
