Gontenbad: Campingplatz Eischen
Campingplatz Eischen lies between rolling pasture and wooded rises in Appenzell Innerrhoden, a position that places it within the region’s long-established dairy-farming country. The site is in Gontenbad, a small settlement in the uplands of northeastern Switzerland, with the Alpstein range forming the wider mountain setting. Fields, farm buildings and forest patches typify this part of the canton rather than a dense resort townscape. Appenzell Innerrhoden is closely associated with Appenzeller cheese, made from local milk under a tradition that remains central to the area’s identity. Eischen is a rural base for exploring the canton’s villages, footpaths and mountain country.

Switzerland stretches from the Jura Mountains in the northwest to the Alps in the south, encompassing a central plateau of cities, farms and lakes. The Rhine rises in the Swiss Alps, while Lake Geneva forms part of the country’s southwestern border. Zürich, Geneva and Basel are major urban centres, yet mountain railways and passes remain central to how many regions are experienced. Four national languages—German, French, Italian and Romansh—reflect Switzerland’s distinct cantonal identities. The Matterhorn above Zermatt is among Europe’s most recognisable peaks, and the 1291 Federal Charter is closely associated with the country’s founding tradition.
