Hike

Message from Tanya Deans

Hike up a river canyon with tall mountain peaks to three big tumbling falls and a new suspension bridge, the pride of the local community.

This is a good choice for spring because it’s lower elevation and you can drive directly to the trail head. We also don't mind it in cloudy weather because its charms don’t rely on panorama views.

Trail info

This is a one way trail up the valley, returning the way you came. It's a bit steep in parts, requiring some fitness, but not dangerous.

Hike: Moderate • 3 h • 8 k there & back • 520m up & down
Trail map

It’s popular for locals, so it might be quite busy on sunny Sundays. So make sure to go early (arrive by 9) and better on Saturday.

How to get there

You start this hike in Weisstannen. There are a few metered parking spots near the trailhead.

Or you can take a train to Sargans, Bahnhof train station. Then catch bus 432 to Weisstannen, Oberdorf. This bus runs hourly, but check the schedule on SBB.ch before you head out.
