Relaxed hiking, enjoy the views of the authentic Swiss mountain world, experience world-class architecture by Herzog & de Meuron and discover gastronomy of Toggenburg.

Whether travelling by train or car, many spot the seven summits of the Churfirsten range on passing the Walensee lake – so why not stop for once to enjoy scenic views down to the valley from a totally different angle? Easiest access comes from behind, courtesy of large carriages and the Iltios funicular railway to the Chäserrugg.

Between rocks left and right, here on the small high plateau the Rosenboden flower trail begins. And once in Toggenburg, be sure to pay a visit to the sound and sayings paths.
