Pure goosebumps: the view from Fronalpstock of over ten lakes and countless Alpine peaks is unique.
The viewing platform on the Fronalpstock offers a fantastic view over countless peaks in the foothills of the Alps and over ten lakes.

Great souvenir photos can be snapped from the photo platform right next to it.

Next to the viewing platform is a playground and, in summer, the Geissli petting zoo. While the children can romp around, you can enjoy the summit in peace and enjoy the view twice as much!
