    The fortress Schollberg is a former fortress of the defensive front "Schollberg-Sarganserau-Tschingel" of the Swiss army in the fortress area Sargans. It was built as part of the Sarganser Au barrier in the rock face of the same name near Trübbach.

      The historic Old Schollberg Road (since 1492) winds between rocks and walls. The most beautiful part is the intermediate climb from the road and the northern section to the Karin Tunnel.
