Tour description

A varied hike along the Suggadinbach stream through the alpine pasture landscape from Gargellen to St. Gallenkirch, offering beautiful views of the Montafon cultural landscape.

The hike takes you from Gargellen down the valley toward St. Gallenkirch, revealing a landscape that has been shaped by agriculture and forestry over the centuries. As you walk along the Suggadinbach, the power of the water accompanies you through the Gargellen Valley and past unspoiled mountain pasture landscapes.

In Rüti near St. Gallenkirch, you’ll discover historic dry-stone walls. They serve as a reminder of the era of the muleteers and remain visible evidence to this day of how the landscape was once used and managed.
