Description
The landscape on Schrina-Hochrugg at the foot of the south side of Churfirsten is impressive. The alpine area is for the most part a cultural landscape. The area has been used, maintained and changed by humans for centuries. The transition to the natural environment of the Alps is fluid. Experience this landscape on the Schrina Alpine and Cultural Trail!
On two trails you will discover many exciting details on the topics of alpine farming, culture, fauna and flora as well as geology.
- The short, stroller-friendly path leads from the PAX monument by the artist Karl Bickel to Alp Schrina.
- The longer trail connects Schrina-Hochrugg via Schrina-Obersäss with Alp Tschingla. Those with a head for heights take the alpine route over the Sitzstein and turn the path into a beautiful circular hike: Schrina-Hochrugg - Sitzstein - Tschingla - Obersäss - Schrina.
On these trails, you should have the brochure "AlpUndKulturWegSchrina" with you. This is available for you at the starting point and at the Walenstadt post office, among other places. You will find small boards with numbers along the way and the corresponding explanations in the brochure.
The information on the individual numbers can also be accessed via QR code.
Hidden Gem
On the way, the Tschingla mountain restaurant beckons you to visit.
