Mountain hikes Stams - oak forest natural monument - Stadliger waterfall - Stams

Description

This route takes you west, below the "Schigymnasium" school, to the "Eichenwald" oak forest. Just before the bridge over the Stamser Bach stream, turn off onto the nature trail and follow it uphill. At the next bridge, cross the Stamser Bach and you'll come to a labyrinth of paths. The route continues uphill from the upper end of the labyrinth and leads to a high-altitude trail. From there, the route turns west to join a forest road, which you continue to follow for quite a distance. At the first bend, the route continues straight on to the west and follows a flat path with beautiful panoramic views. When you come to the sign for the "Stadliger Wasserfall" (Stadlinger waterfall), take the narrow path that leads downhill to the waterfall and then continue between the moss-covered landslide blocks down into the valley. Finally, follow the paved road east, past the Sellrain-Silz power station, through the oak forest and back to the starting point.
