Beschreibung

Heidi's Long Trail is a best-of on the Bad Ragaz side of the Pizol, tailored for trail runners. First, the route follows the Heidi path (a popular hiking trail for families) through a varied landscape, passing a mountain hut on Schwarzbüel that could easily be from a Heidi movie. A postcard motif is also the Vilterser Seeli, which also lies on the route, as well as the higher-lying Wangsersee.


Accompanied by a breathtaking panorama, the trail continues initially flat at the highest point on a plateau, before descending again towards the valley at Laufböden. At the Sunntigweid storage lake, beach baskets invite you to take a short break, then it goes back via Obersäss to the starting point at Pardiel, from where you can take the gondola back down to the valley.

Geheimtipp

Trailrunning workshops take place at various dates on the Pizol. Accompanied by certified running guides and professional athletes.

Sicherheitshinweis

The highest point of the route is over 2,200 meters above sea level, so be prepared for rapid temperature and weather changes.

Ausrüstung

Normal trailrunning equipment (trail shoes recommended everywhere). Bring enough food and drink (self-sufficiency principle). Maps and a cell phone with good reception.

Wegbeschreibung

Take the gondola from Bad Ragaz to the starting point in Pardiel. From here, we walk via Obersäss and the Schwarzbüel viewpoint to the Schwarzbüelhütte. From there, head left to the Vilterser Obersäss. We reach this intermediate destination via a varied trail through forest, moor, and rough vegetation. Ascending, we walk to the Vilterser Seeli and at the end of the lake towards the Pizolhütte. We follow this mountain path to the Wangsersee. The lake invites you to cool off before continuing on the high path to Laufbodenstübli. Here, at 2,223 meters above sea level, the highest point of our route is reached, and then it goes steadily downhill along a long forest road above Pardiel. As soon as we see the first information boards in the shape of edelweiss, we follow them uphill until we arrive at the Suntigweidsee. Here you can relax in the beach baskets and enjoy the great panorama. If you don’t want to do the extra loop via Suntigweidsee anymore, you can go directly to Pardiel. At the end, there is a short descent via Obersäss back to Pardiel. From there, take the gondola back to Bad Ragaz.
