WALSA-Weg: Stage 1

This walk starts in Bad Ragaz, where thermal spring water has been gushing since 1840. After passing the ruin of Freudenberg castle, which can be traversed on foot, there follows a longer stretch uphill in light mixed woodland. The view across the Rhine Valley to the Grison Alps is awe-inspiring. Passing through Valeistobel valley, the final ascent ends in Garschlu.
