Possible onward journey to Lachengrat. Good ascent to Lachenalp, then short Tragestrecke (20 min.) Then beautiful descent to Klöntal

Haltiwald Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The lowest part of the trail, which leads down steep and rough (S1 and a lot S2) from the Brandhüttli to Näfels and crosses the road 3 times. The lowest section of the trail then back on the meadow.

Along the open air pool it is traffic-free and "legal" to Glarus along the Linth. However, there are also special pedestrian paths in the area, as there is a general driving ban!

Viewpoint at Feinsen

Highlight • Viewpoint

Get off the bike and walk about 15 minutes to the cross. Everything is secured, so it is also possible for those who are not so experienced.
