3-day route stage 1: Marbachegg - Flühli 35km
A "flowy" route takes you down to Kemmeriboden-Bad and from there with a "blue" or "red" level of difficulty via Salwideli through the colorful moorland landscape to Rossweid in Sörenberg. After a leisurely descent, the stage finish is reached at the Kurhaus Flühli. For the more ambitious, there is the "red" option of a final ascent with bombastic views and an additional downhill run. A short trip to the Kneipp facility is also a wonderful experience.
