Description
The striking 7 Churfirsten are a natural monument of national importance and can be admired particularly impressively on a circumnavigation. The views from the valleys to be crossed are completely different; from Toggenburg they appear rather soft and green overgrown, while seen from the opposite side, they protrude almost vertically and jagged from the Walensee below.
The tour leads through picturesque and diverse landscapes as well as past well-known holiday resorts. From the proud Rhine between Bad Ragaz, Sargans, Buchs and the Principality of Liechtenstein, to the pre-Alpine Toggenburg with the holiday resorts of Wildhaus, Unterwasser and Alt St.Johann. The route then continues at the foot of the Churfristen chain down the valley in the direction of Wattwil. The high plateau of Ricken attracts visitors with magnificent views towards the Linth area and Lake Zurich with the rose city of Rapperswil. Starting along the fjord-like Walensee, on the other side of the Churfirsten, almost the entire holiday region of Heidiland is crossed. Opposite the Churfirsten is the popular holiday and excursion destination Flumserberg (accessible by gondola lift with bicycle transport from Unterterzen). At Walenstadt, you leave the lake and drive through the Seez Valley until the striking Sargans Castle comes into view. Further ahead, the well-known spa town of Bad Ragaz beckons, where a visit to the soothing thermal water of the Tamina Therme promises pure relaxation as the crowning glory of the tour. Opposite Bad Ragaz, the wide landscape of the Graubünden dominion opens up with its sun-drenched slopes, known far and wide for its traditional viticulture and the Heidi village in Maienfeld.
