St. Gallen

St. Gallen sits in northeastern Switzerland at 670m elevation, ringed by the Appenzell Alps to the south and east. The Stadtlauf St. Gallen runs through the medieval city centre and surrounding valleys, while the Säntis Classic and Waldstattlauf Säntis Panoramalauf push cyclists and runners up to Säntis (2502m) — a steep, exposed climb that dominates the region's racing calendar. Cyclists find varied terrain here: The Hope 1000 Mountain-Bike nonstop and Dead Ends & Cake draw on the dense network of single-track and forestry roads across the Appenzell foothills, with constant rolling elevation gain rather than sustained climbs.
