After last years one-night visit in Appenzell due my biketrip from Fribourg to Schaffhausen it was clear - I've got to revisit this area again. So I planned one week in Appenzell, this time the Fully EMTB was taken with.
One of the booked visits was the training day to the Airshow Hoher Kasten, a 1794m high mountain above the Rhein River and at the border to Lichtenstein, Austria and Germany near the lake of constance. The aircrafts are flying around the peak, sometimes a bit lower for nice pictures.

The event and the location was well organised, only the traffic jam on the cable cabin because of very much people with this nice weather was a bit a downfall and a lot of people missed the last public transport to the railway. We informed the organisators and this will not happen again.
The price for the cablecar is quite high, also for Switzerland. I was happy to have the Appenzeller Holiday Card of Appenzell Tourism (if you are booking your stay for more than 3 nights its included), with many goodies like free transport in the area and on Hoher Kasten, Ebenalp and Kronberg mountain.
Next time I will probably bike up to Kamor/Trestenkopf for the Show 🚵
