Description

The landscape on Schrina-Hochrugg at the foot of the Churfirsten south side 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 Alp- und Kulturweg Schrina!

On two paths 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 of the artist Karl Bickel to Alp Schrina.
- The longer path connects Schrina-Hochrugg via Schrina-Obersäss with Alp Tschingla. Those without vertigo take the alpine route over the Sitzstein and make a beautiful circular hike Schrina-Hochrugg - Sitzstein - Tschingla - Obersäss - Schrina out of the way.

On these routes, you should have the brochure "Alp- und Kulturweg Schrina" with you. This can be obtained on Alp Schrina, at the Stationery Fries in Walenstadt and at the Heidland information point on the Flumserberg. On the way you will find small boards with numbers and in the brochure the corresponding explanations.
