Walenstadt Church Tower

Highlight • Religious Site

The municipality Walenstadt is located at the eastern end of the beautiful Walensee. The surrounding landscape is characterized by the rugged sloping Churfirsten.

In the center you will find traditional Swiss buildings, parts of the old city wall and a beautiful church. In the "Old Town Hall" is the local museum. At the lake shore there is a bathing beach and a harbor of the Walenseeschifffahrt. Walenstadt can also be reached by train.

Walenstadtberg

Highlight • Settlement

High above the Walensee on the southern slope of the Churfirsten lies this small village with almost 200 inhabitants. Idyllically, the cows graze in the pastures and the locals sit on sunbeds in front of their wooden houses. We recommend a stop in the "Calusa Beizli". In Walenstadtberg there is also a well-known rehab center, which used to be a sanatorium.
