En bici de San Galo a Wittenbach

This pleasant ride starts in the university town of St. Gallen, known for its UNESCO-listed Abbey Library and vibrant old town. The route takes you north toward Wittenbach, covering about 7.6 km—perfect for a quick exploration outside the city!

The path is mostly on quiet roads and offers a nice balance of climbing and descending, with just enough ascent (about 128 meters) to get the legs working, before a breezy downhill stretch closer to Wittenbach. Most surfaces are paved or asphalt, but there’s a dash of gravel for a bit of variety—so wider tires wouldn’t hurt.

Wittenbach is a small, friendly town surrounded by green hills—great for a coffee break or a snack before you turn back. It’s a straightforward ride, ideal for intermediate cyclists or anyone who wants to escape urban crowds and enjoy some peaceful Swiss countryside.
