Details

Description

Quinten and the hamlet of Au are located on a promontory on Lake Walen. Quinten is one of the few places in Switzerland that is still car-free. The mild climate allows figs, lemons, sweet chestnuts and good wine to ripen.

A boat departs from Murg West to Au and Quinten several times a day, even in winter. We start the excursion with a boat trip from Murg West to Au. After the boat trip, we cross the delta of the Aubach and walk along a wide, beautifully landscaped path along the lake to Quinten.

Hidden Gem

Please note the winter timetable of the Walensee boat.

The tour is easy to do in light trekking shoes.

Directions

We follow the hiking trail from Au along the shore in a westerly direction. After about 15 minutes we reach the Quinten landing stage.
