To the Ramsenstock

1. HERISAU TRAIN STATION. The main signpost is located at the roundabout near the station. Follow the road towards Tüfi/Zellersmüli, then turn right after 200 meters onto Gossauerstrasse. 2. GOSSAUERSTRASSE. Above the railway viaduct, the signpost points towards Tüfi/Zellersmüli. A staircase leads downwards. After reaching the bottom, cross the street and follow Hölzlistrasse. 3. HÖLZLI. Hike right towards Tüfi. 4. STELZ. The path leads over the meadow and from Tüfi on a narrow footpath along the right bank of the Glatt river to Zellersmüli. 5. ZELLERSMÜLI. The asphalt road goes uphill towards Ramsen / Ramsenburg Ruin. 6. MÖSLI. Turn left. The route passes quaint farmhouses. The Südostbahn railway track is crossed via a tunnel. 7. RAMSEN. The route to the Ramsenburg ruin leads steeply up the hill. A break halfway is worthwhile because of the view: looking back shows the towns of Gossau, Flawil, Uzwil and Wil. And in the north, Lake Constance glimmers. At the highest point stands the ruins of Ramsenburg or Rosenburg. A discovery route through the old walls should not be missed. A bench invites you to picnic and a barbecue area for grilling. Afterward, you walk rested down through the hollowway. 8. RAMSENBURG. Walk straight ahead on the forest path to Flue Mitte. 9. FOREST EDGE. To the left, the path leads along the forest edge to Flue / Herisau. To the south, you have an unobstructed view of the Alpstein. 10. FLUE. On the asphalt road, it goes down to Stierweid. 11. OBERE HUEB. Turn left onto Huebstrasse and after 100 meters follow the yellow sign on the right. 12. STIERWEID. The sign points left towards Herisau. A gravel road leads north past the Schmidhusen residential area. 13. BRUGG. Across the hill, you walk on a meadow path over the Bruggböhl to the mill and from there on the road back to Herisau train station.
