Thur Round Trip
The Weinfelden region includes the center of the canton with the Thur valley and the neighboring ridges of the Ottenberg including the plateau south of the Thur.
As early as the 9th century, river channels were built in the plain in order to make the water power of the river available to the emerging industry. As a result, many trade and industrial enterprises emerged in the upcoming region and give the Thur region its character.
Along the Ottenberg, numerous vineyards characterize the landscape. Along the watercourse, charming biking routes were designed that are connected to the surrounding regions and build a tightly woven and attractive route network.
