- Condition: difficult
- Great panorama
- bike tour

This tour is a cycling variant for one of the Jakobswege in Switzerland. It largely follows the marked pilgrimage route but also includes alternative drivable paths when the original route is not very "bike-friendly" and alternatives are available. Therefore, the route is not suitable for racing bikes.
