Grossrotstein
A short, very steep climb above Walde SG in St. Gallen. The hardest 500 metres average 23.1% and come almost at once, before your legs have settled. Expect 9 to 15 minutes. At 2.7 TEP it sits in the easier half of the catalogue. South-facing, so it is hot in summer and one of the first to clear of snow. The path is graded easy hiking: the effort is in your lungs, not your footing. The nearest named summit, Schwammegg at 1,282 m, is 308 m away.
