North of the Hörnli, the Dreiländerstein, altitude 992 meters (3,255 ft), marks the meeting of the boundaries of the three Cantons of Zürich, St.Gallen and Thurgau.

Already in the Middle Ages, the so-called Schwabenweg, led over the Hörnli, as a part of the Way of St. James. Since 2008, it is an integrated stretch of the Kreuzlingen branch on the Via Jacobi, registered on the official Swiss national trekking path nr. 4, signalled as leg Fischingen–Rapperswil on Wanderland Schweiz.
