| [...]vielseitigen Angeboten am sanften is in marked contrast to the wider variety on offer on the gentler slopes.... Explanation: OK, here goes: "is in marked contrast to the wider variety on offer on the gentler slopes at the back of the mountain" - Still leaves you wondering what the variety refers to, but the German is ambiguous too |

The Stockhorn could be a peak visible from this spot or sticking out/towering above a lush green Alm. But I imagine it is a rock with a very distinctive shape in contrast to the Alm. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 11 hrs 42 mins (2004-12-01 23:56:11 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Hi again Philip, I looked at some sites and they tell me the Stockhorn is a place with lots to do and to see: a place to experience nature hautnah. Maybe: The Stockhorn with its striking and distinctive shape forms the natural backdrop to the many activities which are on offer on the gently undulating mountain pastures (an Alm area).
