Walensee Lakeside Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

It's incredibly beautiful to drive here. We were here at the end of June and it wasn't very busy, so we could drive around completely relaxed 👍
The scenery and the lake are beautiful 🤩

Luckily, it's slightly lit inside, but it's curved and confusing

Standenhorn Tunnel

Highlight • Cycleway

The Standenhorn is a steep section of the shore of the Walensee near Filzbach.

The Standenhorn is crossed by two tunnels:

One lane of the A3 motorway leads through a tunnel that is 230 meters long today.[1] This is an originally 258 meter long former railway tunnel on the Ziegelbrücke–Sargans railway line, which was built in 1859.[2][3] Today the railway runs through the newer and several times longer Kerenzerberg Tunnel.
A 235 meter long tunnel is part of the Lakes Route[4] as a cycle path and also serves as a rescue tunnel for the Kerenzerberg tunnel.
