Introducción
Plenty of sunshine, magnificent countryside, and panoramic views of the Leistchamm, the jagged Churfirsten, and the Toggenburg are among the highlights the trail from Arvenbüel to Vorder Höhi has to offer. After snowshoeing through sparse forest and over snowy Alpine meadows, the cosy, little mountain inn invites you to relax and refuel.
Descripción
The snowshoe trail starts in the Amden district of Arvenbüel at 1,273 metres above sea level. It first leads on Leistkammstrasse downhill to Beerenbach. Here the trail's centrepiece starts, winding uphill to Looch through the Eggwald forest and across Alpine meadows covered with a dusting of snow. Superb views of the Leistchamm and across the Glarus Alps open up. Without notable ascents at an altitude of 1,550 metres above sea level, the trail leads along the westside of Flügelspitz and through the sparsely forested area via Bärenegg to Schiblerwiti.
After the short ascent to Saum, catch a glimpse down into the Toggenburg. You have reached the snowshoe trail's highest point at 1,628 metres above sea level. On the way, the views extend to the Alpstein massif with the iconic Säntis and the jagged Churfirsten. Next stop: Vorder Höhi, a small mountain pass connecting the Walensee and Toggenburg. When you get there following a short descent, the Alpine restaurant by the same name is the perfect place for a break.
The way back to Arvenbüel first runs along the winter hiking trail relatively steeply downhill. Before Alp Altschen, it branches off towards Zopf. Following the enchanting Beerenbach brook, the route ends back at Arvenbüel, part of the Amden ski area. It stands out for its closeness to nature and its manageable size. The easy runs are popular among families, while active nature lovers appreciate the paths, hiking and cross-country ski trails away from the ski slopes.
