SKILIFT SCHILT
Location : Untere Fronalp 2, 8753 Mollis
In Glarnerland, you can ski endlessly and let off steam in a different ski area every day. You can either travel a few minutes or head straight from the studio to the Schilt ski lift. This small and ecological ski area at the foot of the Fronalpstock has just two T-bar lifts, but still offers varied pistes, powder snow and opportunities for ski tours, and snowboarders will also find their "snow happiness" here. If you are lucky, you can ski almost to the studio door if there is enough snow. There is a ski bus from the village or you can travel here in your own car (snow chains recommended), parking spaces are available.
KAFI AND BAKERY BEUGE
Budget: $$ | Näfels
Location: Im Dorf 28, 8752 Näfels
In addition to patisserie from the in-house bakery and coffee with alternative milk options, you can also indulge in hot dishes at Kafi Beuge or buy whatever your heart desires directly from the bakery counter. Sunday is a day off.
The avocado toast with egg is excellent!
BIKING AND E-BIKING GLARNERLAND
The Glarnerland is the perfect place for biking! Just outside the studio door, you head up the pass road and off into the beautiful mountain landscape! There are countless routes to choose from: you can download a map of the most beautiful bike routes in Glarnerland here.
If you don't bring your own bike, you can rent a test bike from Ciclo Sport in Mollis; be sure to reserve your desired bike a few days in advance - this can also be done directly using the online form.
And by the way: there are 25 charging stations throughout Glarus where you can charge your e-bike on the go! While you enjoy rösti and a cold beer, your bike gets a full charge.
At the Linth Arena in Näfels, you can practise in the Skills Park, whether you're a beginner or already somewhat advanced on a bike - it's fun in any case!
Every fall, the Klausen Pass is car-free for one day and the "Klausen Monument" takes place.
You can also find more information about biking and e-biking on the Glarnerland-Walensee website.
PARAGLIDING AND HELICOPTER FLYING MOLLIS AIRFIELD
Mollis has an airfield and offers you several opportunities to enjoy the mountains from above.
Whether it's a helicopter tour with Heli Linth or a paragliding experience with Robair.
At Robair you have the opportunity to learn to paraglide yourself or simply take part in a trial day.
If you have always wanted to fly - Mollis is the perfect place to fulfill this dream. Perhaps you would like to surprise someone with this unique experience.
You can reach the airport on foot from the studio in about 20 minutes.
FLYHOF
Budget: $$$ | Weesen
Location: Betliserstrasse 16, 8872 Weesen
Seasonal, rustic cuisine with great attention to detail and no unnecessary ingredients. The Flyhof is located in Weesen, directly on the lake. In the cooler months you can sit in the cozy parlor and when it's warmer on the secluded terrace.
The perfect place for a romantic dinner for two.
NAVIGATION WALENSEE
A boat trip and an ice cream on the lake is always a good idea, isn't it? Start and finish at the harbor in Weesen. Combine the whole thing with a stopover and a short walk to Paradiesli Betlis, a detour to car-free Quinten and a cool dip in the water!
BADI OBERSEE
Location: 3XMX+QH Näfels (Google Plus Code)
Our favorite swimming pool and, in our opinion, a very special one is the Obersee swimming pool at over 1000 m above sea level, including a staffed kiosk at the weekend. The swimming pool is supplied with natural water and offers you a unique view in the middle of nature! It can be wonderfully combined with a walk around the Obersee.
LANDGASTOF PARADIESLI
Budget: $$ | Betlis
Location: Obere Betliserstrasse 12, 8872 Weesen
As the saying goes: "the name says it all". The Landgasthof Paradiesli offers fine food for the stomach and soul in beautiful surroundings and, with a bit of luck, even with a view of the lake. Much of the food here is produced in-house - you don't often find so much love for and in food. There is also a wonderful farm shop nearby where you can do a little shopping. The boat trip to Betlis is a must and is of course part of the experience, as is the short walk to Paradlisli (not to be confused with Strahlegg Castle, where most people will turn off).
NATURAL BEACH GÄSI
Location: 44H6+84 Glarus North (Google Plus Code)
At "Gäsi" on Lake Walen you can enjoy a small sandy beach and cool off in Lake Walen. You can get a snack at the Gäsi-Beizli or grill your own food at one of the barbecue areas. You can reach this beautiful spot from the studio in around 15 minutes by e-bike.

CLIMBING MULLERNALP
Location: 34R8+G58 Glarus North (Google Plus Code)
In Glarnerland you can climb as far as the eye can see. It starts very close to the studio, where you climb on the Mullernalp on the Steger and Wyss walls with unique views and a medium level of difficulty. However, you first have to hike to the climbing garden, which is about a 50-minute walk from Mullern. It's worth it!
You can also find an overview of other climbing and bouldering areas and possible climbing routes on the website "the crag".
SLEDGING WEISSENBERGE
Location: Alte Strasse 7, 8766 Matt
The Weissenberge toboggan run in Glarus Süd is our favorite. The Matt Weissenberge cable car takes you directly to the sledging fun. The toboggan run has it all and guarantees a racy descent. It's best to take the cable car up, enjoy a cheese fondue with schnapps in the mountain inn and then tackle the rather steep slope.
Sledging is also great at the Kerenzerberg cable car, not far from the studio. You can go sledging here in winter and ride down on a scooter in summer.
You can find lots more tobogganing ideas on the Glarnerland Tourism website.
NATURFREUNDEHAUS FRONALP
Budget: $$ | Mollis
Location: Untere Fronalp 10, Alp Fronalp, 8753 Mollis
In good weather, the terrace of the Naturfreundehaus offers a wonderful view of the Glarus Alps and Lake Klöntal. The cuisine is traditional Swiss, the staff friendly.
The Kännelstrasse, which starts about 100 meters from the studio, takes you directly to this pretty mountain restaurant after a 20-minute drive in the direction of Fronalp. It'll take you a brisk 45 minutes by e-bike and you'll have really earned your rösti ;)
In winter, the Naturfreundehaus is located in the middle of the Schilt ski lift winter sports area and therefore driving from the ski lift parking lot is prohibited in winter.
TAMINA THERME BAD RAGAZ
Location: Hans Albrecht-Strasse, 7310 Bad Ragaz
If the Linth Arena's wellness facilities are still a little too little for you, take a 30' drive and visit the Tamina Therme in Bad Ragaz, where you can spend the whole day relaxing and being pampered to your heart's content.
