**Bründlichrüz – Bad Schwarzenberg – Stierenberg summit.** On this stage, no one has to be hungry, as the path passes by two renowned restaurants in the region. The goal, the Stierenberg, with its 872 meters, is the highest Aargau summit entirely surrounded by canton territory.

From Bründlichrüz, the hike leads down through the forest into the Sagenbachtäli, passing the Bad Schwarzenberg inn. The former spa burned down in 1935, and the spa and healing operations were discontinued at that time. However, the restaurant was rebuilt and continued operation, and the mineral spring still bubbles today, serving excellent water to guests.
