View of Sargans Castle

Highlight • Castle

Sargans Castle is a castle complex above Sargans in the canton of St. Gallen in Switzerland. The castle formed a fortress together with the town. Sargans Castle was first mentioned in a document in 1282 when Countess Elisabeth von Werdenberg-Sargans was issued a certificate for the sale of goods.

Checkpoint Berghaus Palfries

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The Berghaus Palfries is located at the foot of the Alvier summit. The almost continuously paved road from the Rhine Valley side meanders past more than 600-year-old Walser settlements and ends at the parking lot at the Berghaus. The moment when you drive over the crest and see the imposing Alvier with the Churfirsten in the background for the first time motivates you to go on for many more kilometers. The view of the Rhine Valley, Lake Walen and the Churfirsten is simply magnificent. Then another piece of cake, what more could you ask for?

Mountain house Palfries

Highlight • Restaurant

The Berghaus Palfries is located at an altitude of 1,700 meters on the Palfries plateau. A large parking area for hikers is located next to the restaurant, and the mountain station of the cable car is just a few steps away.

Enjoy a hearty meal or a refreshing drink while taking in the wonderful views of the Sarganserland region – before or after your hike on the plateau.

More information about the inn can be found here: palfries.ch/berghauspalfries.
