WI_ge001_357_34.jpg

Summit cross at Hochhäderich (1565 m). This peak is part of the Nagelfluh chain, a mountain range at the N rim of the Alps consisting of conglomerate rocks, locally known as Nagelfluh. They have their origin in sediments transported out of the early Alps which later consolidated, and were folded and tilted due to tectonic forces.
