Description

The hike starts in the village centre of Splügen. Splügen was awarded the coveted Wakker Prize by the Swiss Heritage Society in 1995.

Through the snowy fairytale forest it goes leisurely downhill to Sufers. The hike ends at the village fountain in Sufers. Enjoy the winter landscape and the view of Lake Sufnersee. You can return to Splügen by PostBus or on foot on the same route or around Lake Sufnersee.
