To the summit cross of the Alpspitz

From Gaflei, an alpine path loops through a pasture slope to the Bargälla-Alp and the Bargälla saddle, where the view encompasses the entire Liechtenstein Alps with their valleys and peaks. From here, the summit of the Alpspitz is close enough to touch: the path leads past Liechtenstein's geographical center between Legföhren and up to the mountain cross - time for a rest with a magnificent panoramic view at Liechtenstein's oldest summit cross. In 1944, the Vaduz court chaplain Martin Bamert had the cross, which can be seen from afar, erected. From the Alpspitz, the trail continues through dense pine forest to the chimney, also signposted as "Chemi", and in this saddle below the Helwangspitz steeply downhill, then below the Alpspitz-Schrofen to the junction with the Liechtenstein Panorama Trail (Via Alpina) at the Gafleisattel. There you can decide whether to take the Fürstensteig trail or return to the starting point, Alp Gaflei, via the same route.
