Klöntal Lakeside Road

Highlight • Cycleway

For me the only sensible option to drive along the lake. On the other hand, there is a hiking trail, but it is explicitly closed to bikes and that makes sense, as there are a lot of pedestrians!
And on the street side you always have beautiful views of the Glärnisch side!

along the Wägitalersee

Highlight (Segment) • Lake

The most beautiful section around the lake is the road from Restaurant Au from the Allmeind to the very front to the dam. However, the road keeps slipping, but the small bumps in the ground are not a problem with the bike. Great view!

Schräh Dam

Highlight • Monument

When the construction was completed in 1926, the Schräh dam was the tallest in the world. It is designed as a weight dam. Of the 111 m total height, 66 m are visible above the valley floor. The crown is 150 m long and 4 m wide.

August 10, 2023,Wer sein Rad liebt, der schiebt ... (oder: vom Wägital zum Klöntal)

Nice tour to Klöntalersee via Wägital and Schwialppass. Great weather, few people (except at Klöntalersee, of course).
I had already read in several tour descriptions that the ascent to the Schwialp Pass is steep. But why do you have to tip so much gravel onto the path? Most of all, of course, where it is particularly steep? Pushing an e-bike …

July 31, 2023,Über's Klöntal-Schwialp zum Wägitalersee und über Rossweidhöhe-Niederurnertäli zurück

Ludi and Ledi via the Klöntal and Schwiialp to the Wägitalersee and via the Rossweidhöhe back to Glarnerland. A very scenic tour. The part over the Schwialp to the "Ober Boden" alp is very rough and steep. Not so nice for me that I want to drive this part again soon. Then along the lake wonderful scenery all around. I …

October 18, 2025,Rossweidhöchi - Schwialp

Starting in Niederurnertäli to Rossweidhöchi. A beautiful trail down to Feldredertli, nothing like before. After a stop at the Kapelle restaurant, the route continues down a steep meadow descent to Flüebödeli. Along Lake Wägitaler, with shady, cool sections, to the Au. From Abernalp, a steep climb, just manageable for me, to Schwialp. Up there, a magnificent autumn panorama, and pleasant …

June 5, 2024,Klöntal - Schwialp - Wägital - Feldredertli

Along the Klöntalersee and after the rain at night it was quite slippery and muddy. The route down to the Wägitalersee has been adapted for quads, no longer a challenge. Nice round with good weather.

June 19, 2024,Mollis Klöntalersee Wägitalersee mit 🐞

Followed a tour by Ledi. Thanks! I've been wanting to go to Glarus for a while. The trail on the south side of the Klöntalersee is a cool thing. The climb up to the Schwialp was steep and sporty. After the Wägitalersee there were also two tough uphills. From the Alp Feldrederten to the ridge it was 💩. From the …

July 27, 2024,Schwialp, verkehrt (18")

Since the path from Schwialp down to Alp Aberen has been dug up recently, the ascent had to be tried today; and it works, albeit with some effort 🥵. It makes for a varied circuit across the Niederurnertäli.
