Ruppen Pass

Highlight • Mountain Pass

The Ruppenpass is one of the most beautiful cycle crossings between the Rhine Valley and St. Gallen. From here you can also head towards St. Anton or to the other side towards Gäbris.

From up here you have a fantastic view of the Rhine Valley. In spring, you see snow-capped mountains in the background and in autumn, when the thick mist soup lies down, the sun shines up here.
