Description

You start in Walenstadt and ride in a first stage with a view of the mighty Churfirsten on the beach path to Murg. On Saturdays and Sundays, you unfortunately have to take the road, because then many hikers use this path. In Murg you have the opportunity to interrupt your bike tour and take the Walensee boat on a trip to car-free Quinten (option A).

Back in Murg, you continue your bike tour and reach the lower end of Lake Walen - Weesen with its pretty harbour. If you want to experience even more, you have the opportunity to make a detour to Betlis, to the Seerenbach Falls. You have certainly noticed these waterfalls from the other side of the river. With an altitude difference of almost 600 m, the Seerenbach Falls form one of the highest waterfalls in Europe. At the same time, the middle step, with a drop of 305 m, is considered one of the highest free-falling waterfalls in Switzerland. After this natural spectacle, you will drive back to Ziegelbrücke, from where the SBB will take you back to your starting point.

Geheimtipp

On the way there are several places where you can take a short break directly at the lake to picnic or just enjoy the view.

Sicherheitshinweis

The route runs partly along pedestrian paths, so please be considerate of other trail users.
