How to find the Alp Ell
Toggenburg is located in the centre of eastern Switzerland, a good hour's drive from Zurich and the airport.
From the south of Germany:
Via Bregenz and St. Margrethen on the A13 motorway to Haag, then towards Toggenburg/Wildhaus or via Constance to Wil.
From the greater Zurich area:
Direction Rapperswil, then over the Ricken Pass to Wattwil or via Winterthur in the direction of Wil/Wattwil/Toggenburg.
Public transport:
You can also get around Toggenburg by public transport. The Wil-Neusslau and St Gallen - Lichtensteig routes are served by rail. And there are bus connections almost everywhere.

In the winter months from December to March, you have to take the chairlift from Krummenau up to Alp ELL.
From there it is about 300 metres straight ahead on foot to the Alp.
You can book transport for your luggage with the railway, which will bring everything to the hut. If the railway is not running, we will provide transport as far as possible.
In the winter months, please make sure you arrive at the Krummenau valley station by 4 pm, as you have to take the chairlift up, as the cable car does not run later.
