Riviera Lake Walen Walenstadt-Quinten

From Walenstadt train station towards Hotel Seehof, a paved road runs along the right lakeshore. After the playground, a rising gravel path begins on the right side through the forest up to Garadur (Walenstadtberg). This path can also be covered by the post bus from Walenstadt to the "Alte Post" station. This shortens the hike by about 1 hour 15 minutes. The single-track hiking trail then continues through the forest in a zigzag course back to the lake. Once reached, a beautiful hike follows the lake all the way to the car-free hamlet of Quinten. Here, there is an almost Mediterranean climate that allows exotic fruits like kiwis and figs to thrive. From there, you take a leisurely boat trip to the other side of the lake to Murg and then return to Walenstadt by train.
