Heidiland Skate
Landquart–Mühlehorn
The Heidiland Skate route leads from Landquart through the vineyards of the Bündner Herrschaft, along the Rhine dam and the River Seez to the Walensee lake. Long straight stretches and little motorized traffic give a carefree skating feeling - often close to the water.
The route first leads from Landquart to Malans, on old agricultural lanes, lined by typical stone walls, through the vineyards of the Bündner Herrschaft. After a short detour to the Rhine dam at Maienfeld, you finally reach the spa resort of Bad Ragaz and continue to Sargans.
Ideal skating infrastructure as far as Sargans. From Sargans to Walenstad you cross the Seeztal valley on long, clearly defined sections. The path near the river is mostly separate from the road.
From Wahlenstad the lake and railway lines are your constant companions, with some lidos found alongside the path. The Heidiland Skate route leads past railway stations in all towns/villages, giving the option of covering individual sections with public transport. Excellent amenities available in the well-known tourist resorts.
