11. Wattwil to Magdenau (Flawil)

From the abbey, go down the main road (Rickenstrasse) and turn left after the garage onto a track that goes under the railway (Susann-Müllerstrasse) and joins road N°8. Cross the Thur River and turn left after the bridge:

1. The cycle / pedestrian track N°24 Thurweg follows the bank alternately on the right and left, deviates from it for a moment (Krinauerstrasse bridge on the left) until it passes under a railway track. Turn left twice to access the footbridge parallel to the track to cross the Thur one last time. Take Steigstrasse to Lichtensteig's main street, which turns right in front of the town hall (Rathaus). Continue in the axis at the level of the fountain where N°24 Thurweg is abandoned to follow the indication "Col de Wasserfluh Pass".
   
   
2. Go east on road N°8 (Bürgistrasse), turn right at the last house to cut the curves of the road by a path (Schulhausweg). Cross the road and take the path in front of you that goes up the valley of the Lederbach stream on one bank and then on the other to join the road to the hamlet of Wasserfluh. Cross the hamlet along road N° 8 to the last house and turn left on the path that goes up in the meadows towards a forest and a pass to go down towards the village of Brunnadern.
   
   
3. When you reach a railway track, turn left and follow it to the Necker River, which in turn runs along it to the hamlet of Necker, where the main road is joined on the right. Take the first road on the right after the village which goes up to Mogelsberg reached by Neckertalerstrasse and then right into Dorfstrasse to reach the church.
   
   
4. At the post office box on Dorfstrasse, turn left (Böschenbachstrasse) in the descent to the bottom of the valley, cross a railway to go back up opposite after Böschenbach for a while on the road and then on a path that cuts a curve and continues down the slope before finding the road again higher at the crossroads with the road to the right of Gonzenwil and Moos. Take this small road until you reach the second hamlet of Tubbach, continue in the same direction at the bend of the road and pass the last farm (Drüeggg).
   
   
5. Continue the path that joins and climbs in a wood to reach a small road and Moos, the most important point of the stage (866m). Then take the first road on the left and then the first road on the right and continue north in the forest to then go down to Magdenau Abbey.
