A warm 3 days were to be expected (22-28C in the flat land of 400m, 15-22C on 1200m) before a drastic weather change with rain and significant lower temperatures; so I took the opportunity to hike the Toggenburger Hoehenweg near the Saentis - the north eastern part of Switzerland.
Thursday 2025/09/18: Wildhaus - HinderselunTaking train to Nesslau/Neu St. Johann, and from there the bus to Wildhaus/Lisighaus.Some distances
Then a moderate ascend to Iltios, and then Selamatt, where the official Toggenburger Hoehenweg starts - the sight is absolutely stunning, clear sky, lower sun and moderate temperatures for 1500-1800m elevation of ~20-22C. Eventually reach Hinderselun, before another ascend starts, I find a nice spot for tonight - apprx. 6hr hiking, more than anticipated.

In the shade of the mountain of Glattchamm and Leistchamm I reach Fluegespitz, and then through beautiful scenery to Vorder Hoehi, and the circumventing Gulme and Stogg, and the reaching Hinder Hoehi. Moderately flat first to Vordermatt, but then steep to Heidenbuel and Alp Oberchaeseren, mild ascend further to Fluegenspitz and just before Speer mountain going right-handside until a small ridge, entering Elisalp region, and reaching the slopes of Wanneberg - a long day 8+ hrs hiking - I took so many photos as it felt like "other worldly" to experience this trail in these bright colors and harsh shadow constrast of mid September sun.

The sun hits the tent 8:00, packing and leaving ~8:45 - still clear sky with a few clouds forming over the alps. I already spotted the Lake of Zurich, but further I proceed the lake presents itself to me unlike I have seen it before, from the east to the north west in its unusual shape. After Tanzboden (1443m), reaching Regelstein (1315m) then first steep descend then flatter trail mostly in the forest and moist and a bit slippery - and eventually reach Ricken (SG) which is my destination.
