Rock climbing

It is considered the largest boulder in the canton and a landmark of the village. It was left here around 12,000 years ago by the Linth Glacier as it retreated. With its height of approximately 7 meters, the Schlattstein is a popular climbing rock. In terms of climbing technique, the rock has a lot to offer, with something for every skill level, writes one boulderer online.
