- Rhine Falls
The route begins at the largest waterfall in Europe – the Rhine Falls – and leads past vineyards to the pretty timber-framed houses of Andelfingen. This is followed by an idyllic bike path through forests and meadows. After Winterthur, there is first a small hill before the route leads down a flat valley to the Pfäffikersee lake.
At the numerous fireplaces with tables and benches, cyclists of all ages take their well-deserved break and prepare for the next stage: for the ascent to the historic Rikenpass muscle grease is needed. But it’s worth the effort: the view is unique and even pilgrims used this pass to get to Wattwil.
