Pfäfers

Pfäfers is located in Sarganserland at 820 m above sea level above Bad Ragaz. The village at the entrance to the Tamina Valley has about 630 inhabitants and belongs to Heidiland. To the west, Pfäfers comprises the area from Vättis to the Calfeisen valley. There is evidence that people lived here as early as the Stone Age. To the south, it includes the Tamina valley up to the Kunkelspass. Very popular with visitors is the Tamina Gorge with the Old Bath Pfäfers. This is the source of the healing spring that supplies 8000 liters of healing water per minute for Bad Ragaz. A 450 m long tunnel leads through the rocky gorge to the grotto. From June to October this dark and mystical gorge is illuminated with a light spectacle. The village is characterized by great differences in altitude. The reservoirs Gigerwald and Mapragg are also popular excursion destinations in Pfäfers

“A trip worth taking! The short hike was easy and pleasant. Marc is very friendly and explained to us how to handle the animals really well. We had a lot of fun and definitely want to come back!”

“The lammergeier and golden eagle tour with Swiss Ranger K. Walser was an amazing experience! He is very knowledgeable, knows the region and its animals perfectly, and shares his knowledge in an engaging and easy-to-understand way. Absolutely recommend it! We saw golden eagles and lammergeiers along the ridge near Seezberg and watched chamois with kids grazing below. In the forest beside us, red deer were roaring as evening fell ❤️”
