Schneeschuhtrail Plattis

Recharge your batteries and enjoy the peace and quiet away from the hustle and bustle of winter - on the Plattis snowshoe trail you can enjoy the tranquillity of the snow-covered mountains with a magnificent panoramic view of the Spitzmeilen area. The easy snowshoe hike is ideal for beginners.

In the sunny alpine restaurant Panüöl with the best view of the local mountain Spitzmeilen, the popular and well-known Panüöler cheese slices, a cheese fondue or a raclette are recommended.

The snowshoe hike starts at the Alprestaurant Panüöl. Panüöl can be reached on foot via the Prodalp-Panüöl snowshoe trail or by gondola and chairlift from Flumserberg Tannenboden via Maschgenkamm. On the cozy sun terrace there is a wonderful view of the Spitzmeilen. The round trip leads over the Plattis plateau. Where cows graze on the alpine meadows in summer, you can enjoy the peace and idyll of the winter landscape. After the first few meters, the trail branches off to the left and leads along the edge of the mountain. On this section, the Spitzmeilen area shows its most impressive side. As a steep rock tooth, the summit of the Spitzmeilen protrudes from the snow slopes. Flums' local mountain is located on the cantonal border of St. Gallen and Glarus and is a popular tour destination in summer and winter. After about 1.2 km you cross the Tannenboden-Fursch trail and follow the trail past snowy fir trees. Slightly uphill, the route runs in an arc around the small moor area. With a little luck, you can discover traces of wild animals in the snow. On the last passage you cross the trail again and return to the alp restaurant. Ambitious snowshoe hikers can combine the tour with the Panüöl-Prodalp snowshoe trail. The descent is rewarded with plenty of afternoon sun and a spectacular view of Sarganserland thanks to the southern exposure.
