“Our guide was careful and deliberate to provide the history and virtues of Chur.”
Quarten
Quarten lies mainly south of Lake Walen. However, part of the municipality also extends north of the lake to the Leistchamm. Quarten belongs to the foothills of the Alps and extends between 419 m.a.s.l. and 2523 m.a.s.l. Thanks to its unique location between the lake and the mountains, Quarten is a popular vacation destination and offers a variety of leisure activities. Whether a visit to the car-free Quinten, a mountain bike tour in the mountains, a hike with panoramic views or any water sports activities, the community really has everything to offer. Among other things, Quarten is also part of the well-known vacation region Heidiland and the ski region Flumserberg. Quinten is a village of the municipality of Quarten on the northern shore of the lake, which can only be reached by boat or on foot

“Some of the audio guides didn't work. A really lovely exhibition — it was well worth it.”
“For me, it was a very good guided tour, even though, as a long-time resident of Einsiedeln (Matura 1964), I already knew quite a lot. On today's visit, I brought along a young man from the neighbourhood who had never been to Einsiedeln before. It was an interesting experience for both of us.”
“Had a fun time. Was interesting and educational plus great chocolate samples and to purchase.”
“I really liked it”
