The Toggenburg Klangweg is the gold standard when it comes to Swiss theme trails for children. Every few minutes along the trail, you’ll find a different interactive musical activity where kids can play and make lots of noise. Since kids can often see or hear the next music station ahead, they are motivated to keep walking to see what’s next.

We usually spend about 4+ hours on the trail, playing at every station along the way and grilling our lunch. The trail is not especially difficult and is possible with an all-terrain stroller. This is a popular option for families and school groups, but there’s plenty of room to spread out. I hope you like it!
