Beschreibung

The Outdoor Fitness Trails in the Heidiland vacation region comprise over 30 uniformly signposted running trails from a total of 10 stations, forming one of the largest outdoor fitness parks in the Alps. The St. Georgen Trail is one of three running trails around Flums station.

The starting point for this 6.3 km trail is the Flums station info point at the station parking lot (451 m above sea level). Still at the station, before the bridge over the Seez, all three trails turn right onto the sidewalk along the stream until the next little bridge. After crossing this, the trail continues through a residential area in the direction of the football pitch. Only here do the trails separate. The St. Georgen Trail and the 2-Dörfer Trail continue behind the football pitch on a footpath along the Schils stream - with wonderful views of the Gräpplang castle ruins, the surrounding vineyards and the imposing Churfirsten mountains. At the ARA (436), the trails follow a tarred road that leads over the railroad bridge in the direction of Berschis. After the overpass, the trails separate. The St. Georgen Trail continues along the highway overpass to the entrance to the village of Berschis (444). The trail now leads through the middle of the idyllic village. At the southern end of Berschis, the steep ascent to the St. Georgen chapel (588) begins. The tarred road leads past the settlement of Golrina (500), along the forest to the parking lot with the information board for the chapel. Continue across a pasture and through a sparse mixed forest to the chapel high above the village. From up there you have a wonderful view over the valley and the surrounding mountains. The descent through the dense forest back to the settlement of Golrina leads past the Lourdes Grotto and is quite steep (beware of the risk of slipping in wet conditions). Back in Berschis, you meet up with the 2-Dörfer-Trail. Together, the trails reach the highway underpass in the middle of the industrial zone between Flums and Walenstadt, which leads back to the info point at the train station parking lot in Flums.
