The Bündner Herrschaft, land of castles
Oldiswald
Select your Region:
The Bündner Herrschaft is famous both for its castles and, of course, for its excellent wines. With towering peaks all around, the Bündner Herrschaft is also the ideal starting place for long bike rides, where you are guaranteed wonderful views over the wide valley, shaped by the Rhine. This is true also as you ride up from Haldenstein to Sasserdunt and back down to the valley through the Oldiswald. The many castle ruins along the route make this a very interesting ride in all respects.
