Au | Sunrise and sunset hike to the Kanisfluh
Even if you start in the early hours of the morning to experience a sunrise on the Kanisfluh, it's worth getting out of bed early. Another impressive spectacle is the sunset on the Kanisfluh. As the sun slowly sets, the alpenglow begins in the direction of the Arlberg.
All sunrises and sunsets are unique. The sunrise or sunset hike is a very special experience combined with unforgettable moments and memories.
