Ski lift Sankt Gallen

Sankt Gallen

Downhill with spice

Yes, there is a ski lift in this St. Gallen, no, for a snack there is no Appenzeller, but Steiererkas. As hearty as the break bread is, so peppery are the ski runs. The Buchstein lift in St. Gallen with its approximately 1000 meters of slopes and secret forest paths is a welcome bite for hungry adventurers.

High up and steeply down

Trees and mountains are powdered white, the sun tickles warmly in your nose, a perfect day to spend a few hours at the Buchsteinlift St. Gallen. Between the Gallenstein Castle and the Kassegg Castle lies the small slope, which has caused some ski pros to sigh melancholically, such a cool downhill run would have been nice to practice in the past. Adventurous the sidesteps through the deep snow, here and there a small ski jump at the edge of the slope. Whether with the family, private ski lessons or with friends, time flies by at the St. Gallen ski lift. If you already know the "normal" slope, you can branch off to the one or other forest path.

Going other ways

The ski lift St. Gallen is located on the Erbsattel, a beautiful area for walking. If you've had enough of skiing or don't want to wait around until your piste hooligans have had enough , you have the opportunity to take a leisurely stroll through this glittering snow paradise.
