Marco's tip:
Werdenberg offers numerous opportunities for mountain biking at every ability level. Let us introduce you to one of them: the route starts with a leisurely ride towards Grabs and then leads over the Grabserberg to the idyllic Voralpsee lake (approximately an hour by e-bike). You can refresh yourself at the Voralp Mountain Inn or at Sämis Kiosk by the lake. If you haven’t had quite enough, you can carry on to Skihaus Gamperfin, which is open all year round, and from there ride along alpine roads towards the Ölberg, the highest point of the tour and the crossing to Toggenburg. After a lovely descent to Wildhaus, pedal past the Schönenbodensee lake and over the Gamserberg back into the Rhine valley, where you’ll reach the starting point via the back roads.
The Ölberg route (Switzerland Mobility route 460): travel time: conventional bicycle approx. 4.5 h, e-bike approx. 3.5 h; elevation/descent: 1,200 m; skill: easy, fitness: medium
