Tips
Beautiful and athletically challenging climb that starts from Lake Walen. After leaving civilization, a fairly steep climb with a gradient of more than 20 percent awaits you. After that, the vegetation changes and the surroundings take on a more high alpine character.

exactly the right thing for Quäldich fans: my Garmin measured "only" 20%, probably the steepest sections are even steeper! last piece flatter again. Great all-round view including Säntis above. Descent to Toggenburg a bit difficult, as mostly corrugated concrete.
