Be careful, there are a lot of hikers, some with dogs. Especially on weekends. Not recommended on weekends!

The Brügstock Lädeli offers everything you could wish for in terms of homemade food (bread, baked goods, syrup, jam, pasta, etc.). Of course, you can also enjoy the view of the Alps in the small restaurant and relax after your hike.
