Mountaineering
The Gamschopf (1,961 m) is a distinctive peak in the western Alpstein above Wildhaus. It lies between Schrenit and Stoss and is primarily known among experienced alpinists. While hiking trails pass by its foot, the ascent to the summit requires climbing experience. From the top, there is an impressive view of the Säntis, the Churfirsten, and the Toggenburg.
