The circular hike starts at the train station Lichtensteig. On the first two kilometers, the path leads steadily uphill through forest and across meadows. The highest point is reached at Schwendi, then it goes down into the Toggenburg village of Krinau. Here you can admire some typical Toggenburg houses. The path then leads along an asphalt road and a wide trail up to Sedelberg. From here, it goes down to the small hamlet Kengelbach. Now it goes over meadows down to the Thur, which winds beautifully through the wild nature of the Aeulischlucht. Hidden gorges, fire pits, gravel banks, a waterfall, bathing spots, viewpoints, and woods where you can wonderfully play hide and seek invite you to take a longer break here. Then an asphalted path leads back to the train station Lichtensteig.
