Clear air, impressive mountains, bright blue lakes and a lovely alpine landscape – Heideland is a delight to discover. The region is the original setting of the Heidi stories so you can follow in the footsteps of Heidi and Peter as you explore the wonderful nature and rich culture of Eastern Switzerland. In autumn, the area is especially beautiful as the fog settles in the valley below the high mountains. The early morning mist covers the valley until the sun slowly emerges revealing the beautiful view over the lakes and valleys.
The Heidiland region offers the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable holiday – Lake Walen and the Churfirsten peaks, the summer and winter resorts of Flumserberg and Pizol, the Sarganserland with its side valleys, and the vineyards of the Bündner Herrschaft all lie en route. This popular holiday destination lies on the border of the cantons of St. Gallen and Graubünden. You can travel in the car via the motorway or take the train from Zurich or Lake Constance in less than one hour.
One of the highlights is the UNESCO World Heritage Site Tectonic Arena Sardona, where you can trace the history of the origins of the Alps. You can see the line of the Glarus thrust from far and wide. Here, 250 to 300-million-years-old rocks shiften young rocks which are 35 to 50-million-years-old. This happened far beneath the earth’s surface 10 - 20 million years ago and tectonic shifts then gradually moved the rocks to the surface. You can marvel at this with your own eyes today, it’s absolutely fascinating!
