Heidi would be thrilled if she could see her homeland now, in all its magical, natural summer beauty. Stretching beneath the mighty chain of the Churfirsten are Lake Walen and other smaller, sparkling mountain lakes.
In the thermal baths in Bad Ragaz, walkers soothe their legs; at Kerenzerberg, families enjoy toboggan and scooter rides; and up on high, mountain bikers tackle scenic trails. Here in the Heidiland holiday region, you will find Johanna Spyri's heroine celebrated everywhere: along Heidi's Trail on the Pizol, at the Heidi musical on the lake stage in Walenstadt, even on goat treks (think of Peter the Goatherd, her friend). But to come closest to her story, follow the Heidi Trail near Maienfeld, where you will encounter another local treasure: the vineyards of the Bündner Herrschaft.
