Description

The route begins with a leisurely stretch from Walenstadt train station to Flums. There, the ascent to the historic Gräpplang castle ruins awaits. After a short break to enjoy the view, it continues. The path leads past the Muttenhöhe to Flumserberg Bergheim. Once there, it quickly goes downhill at high speed at Grossberg. At Gasellen, it goes uphill again into the idyllic Schilstal. The path passes lush green meadows and rustling fir trees. Then it continues over rough terrain towards Kleinberg. There you can enjoy one last descent.
