Details

Description

From Sargans train station, follow the signposted cycle paths to Mels. The steady but easy ascent to Weisstannen begins there. The closer you get to Weisstannen, the more often you can see the rushing Seez.

In Weisstannen, keep to the right side of the valley and head towards Alp Siez and Alp Walabütz. Immediately at Alp Siez, turn left and take the last section to Alp Walabütz. With a clear view of the impressive 230m high "Isengrind" waterfall, you now reach Alp Walabütz at the foot of the Foostock.

Hidden Gem

Take part in the E-Bike Alpen-Trophy: collect stamps on 7 Alps and receive a culinary greeting at the end of the season.

Safety Note

Drive with foresight and behave respectfully towards other recreationists and road users.

Equipment

Normal bike equipment. Functional clothing is an advantage, as a long ascent is followed by an equally long descent.
