Details
Description
Starting from the spa town of Bad Ragaz, this route leads through the quiet yet spectacular Tamina Valley past Vättis in the direction of Kunkelspass. After a short drive, you will pass the spectacular Tamina Bridge. Later, the path leads past the milky blue Mapragg reservoir, past lovely pastures and through the tranquil village of Vättis. From there, a quiet road leads along the Görbsbach in the direction of the Kunkel Pass. You cross the cantonal border from St. Gallen to Graubünden and imagine yourself in the middle of the larches and flower-filled meadows in an Engadine side valley.
Geheimtipp
Take part in the E-Bike Pickling Trophy: Collect stamps at 7 mountain pubs and receive a culinary greeting at the end of the season.
Sicherheitshinweis
The gravel road along the Mapragg reservoir may be affected by avalanches from the previous winter in spring.
Ausrüstung
Normal bike equipment. Functional clothing is an advantage, as a longer climb is followed by an equally long descent.
Directions
The exit to the Eggwald mountain inn is best started at Bad Ragaz train station. If you want to rent an e-bike, you can do so at the e-bike station Bad Ragaz, right at the entrance to the Tamina Therme. After a short drive through the spa town, you reach the Valenser road, which winds uphill. No more cars are to be expected on this road, because since the construction of the Tamina Bridge, this road has been reserved for bikers, hikers and forestry workers. After a slightly steeper climb, you now have an excellent view of the Tamina Bridge. It is recommended not to cross the bridge, as the roads are quieter on this side of the valley. Follow the road past the villages of Valens and Vasön. After Vasön, the road leads down to the Mapragg reservoir. But before you reach the dam wall, you turn right off the main road in the first sharp bend. From here, an easy gravel road leads along the reservoir, away from traffic. At the end of the lake we cross the Tamina over the hiking bridge. On the other side of the river, the path leads along the road towards Vättis. Even before the village, you change again to quiet side roads, which lead to the village. In the village, follow the signs "Kunkelspass" and leave the village after the bridge on the left. From here you follow the quiet road with the super pleasant slope past beautiful flower meadows, the wild Görbsbach and idyllic huts to the Eggwald mountain inn. Of course, always under the protection of the impressive Calanda massif.
