Tour character

The regions Appenzell and Toggenburg are hilly and you will have to master some steep ascents. Good stamina is needed for the walk, especially for the stage up to Einsiedeln. The trails are in a very good condition and easy to walk on. A good tour for beginners that are in a good shape.

Leave the car at home! For every bike, biking or hiking tour in Switzerland, you will receive an SBB coupon per participant, which you can use to deduct CHF 10.- from the ticket price for traveling by train. The reduction can be obtained in the SBB online store or in the SBB app.
