One of the most beautiful winter hiking trails on the Pizol is undoubtedly the Panorama Höhenweg. The very short trail from Pardiel to Prodkopf and back is very pleasant and easy to walk for the whole family. An observation tower and a giant swing are popular attractions at the Proskopf power spot. On the Panorama Höhenweg you will pass the Wangsersee with a catered hut. In winter, the Wangsersee turns into a giant ice skating rink. Laufböden, by the way, lies like a huge terrace at 2222 m above sea level with a view of the St. Gallen Rhine Valley and the Churfirsten. At the starting and ending points of all designated hiking trails you will find restaurants where you can fortify yourself.
