E-Bike Beizen Trophy - Berghotel Schönhalden, Flumserberg Saxli

Ideally, the ride to the Berghotel Schönhalden starts at the Flums train station, where the circular route also ends. Via Bahnhofstrasse and Marktstrasse, you reach Bergstrasse, which you cross at the height of the St. Laurentius Church. Here, you now follow Feldstrasse, which continues as Clevelaustrasse after a few hundred meters. From here, you are on the Switzerland Mobility Route 474 Chapfensee-Bike, but in the opposite direction. Always follow the course of this route, passing various farms and the Maria Lourdes Chapel. After about 10 kilometers and around 770 meters of elevation gained, you reach the former Sässeliwiese restaurant. Here, you leave the Chapfensee-Bike route and instead follow the wider road uphill. From here, you continue on the last part of the ascent, where over 4 kilometers, another 300 meters of elevation are covered. The private road, which soon becomes a gravel road, is allowed to be used by bikers.

The descent route first leads back to Sässeliwiese and then again follows the Switzerland Mobility Route 474 Chapfensee-Bike (opposite direction). Up to "Gafröa" you are on a gravel road, which is more or less flat. From Gafröa, the path now leads past 2 streams to Plons. The way now descends towards "Gigerberge" at point 1019. A short climb of about 50 meters leads to the Chapfensee nature reserve. The kiosk invites you for another refreshment before you circle the nature reserve on gravel roads and finally head downwards towards Mels at the east end of the lake. Arriving in Mels, the route follows the partially beautifully renaturalized Seez river back to the starting point in Flums.

Normal bike equipment. Functional clothing is advantageous since a long descent follows a longer ascent.

The ascent to the Berghotel Schönhalden mainly follows paved roads. The descent includes a section of gravel road and a short stretch of natural path. Uncertain e-bikers should use the ascent route for descent.

At the mountain inns, charging devices are available for the most common systems. Those who want to be on the safe side should bring their own charger and possibly the battery key.

E-bikes can be rented at the e-bike station at the Tamina Therme in Bad Ragaz.
