Swiss stone pine path

From the mountain station, we hike on the paved alpine road heading southeast to the parking lot on the Chamm. There we turn left through the fenced parking lot and along the distinctive border fence over the alpine pasture. At the top, there is a dry stone wall. We will follow this for a few meters to the north, and then you will find yourself in front of a recessed bench where the entrance is located. This path winds through the bright Swiss stone pine / Swiss pine forest. Initially, the trail ascends slightly and then leads gently through the remaining forest section. Soon, we reach the crosswise white-red-white marked mountain path that leads from the Wartau side over the Chamm to the Palfries plateau. There, we turn half-left and follow the mountain path marking over the alpine pasture. After about 500 m, the path turns half-left again, and shortly afterward, we reach the forest road that leads back to the starting point.

If you want to enjoy the alpine flora for another quarter of an hour, then do not turn off and continue the hike on the more or less level path until you reach the Alvier mountain path (2342 m above sea level). Here we head downhill, where we will arrive very quickly at the parking lot belonging to the Palfries mountain inn. The hiking time from here back to the starting point (Palfries mountain station) is about fifteen minutes.
