Flurnamenweg Glarus

Field names offer orientation. Where are we here and what is it called over there? What does the field name mean? Is there a story behind it? On the easy circular route, field names can be discovered interactively with the smartphone. Observation terraces invite you to linger and discover the opposite side of the valley.

Field names tell about the history of our habitat and our ancestors. They sometimes have an ancient meaning that is hidden behind the superficial meaning. But they can also be created anew and remind us of people or events. On the easy circular route, field names can be discovered interactively with the smartphone. Observation terraces invite you to linger and discover the opposite side of the valley.
The Field Name Trail leads through all the villages of the municipality of Glarus and the trail takes about three to five hours. On the Flurnamenweg there are four field name benches that have a QR code for further information. The benches can be found at the following locations:
- Terrace Netstal, Vorder Schlatt Netstal
- Ennenda Terrace, Bifang Glarus
- Terrasse Glarus, Mädli Ennenda
- Terrace Riedern, Bruggli Netstal
