The Churfirsten is a series of 7 mountain peaks on the Walensee. Running all 7 consecutively is quite a challenge. Several variants from different starting points have been described, ranging from T3 to T6 (completely over the ridge). This variant is the most comfortable, namely completely over the hiking trails. However, this does mean that parts of the route have to be ran back and forth.

The total distance is almost 50km with 4,500 altimeters. In addition, it is difficult to obtain water, so a lot of water has to be brought along yourself.

We start in Walenstadtberg, from where we first run to the passage through Gocht to the back of the Churfirsten. Then we climb successively: Selun, Frümsel, Brisi, Zuestoll, Schibenstoll, Hinterrugg and the Chäserrugg.

Here we can celebrate with joy that we have conquered all 7 peaks, but we still have to descend 1000 meters
