About this property

Car-free idyll on the lake, only accessible by boat

ED Refnr. 419086

Discover the unique chalet in Quinten-Au on picturesque Lake Walen, where relaxation and adventure combine to create the perfect holiday symphony. Quinten is the only place in Switzerland that can only be reached by boat or on foot and is therefore completely car-free. The exclusive holiday home is a dreamlike retreat in a private settlement in an elevated south-facing position in the car-free village. It impresses with its breathtaking panoramic view over the lake and the snow-capped mountain peaks. Inside, it can accommodate up to seven people and is ideal for families or groups of friends who want to switch off in idyllic peace and quiet and still enjoy the excellent public transport connections.

An atmosphere of warmth and cosiness awaits you in the heart of the chalet. The living area with fireplace and dining area, adjoining the kitchen with small bar, promises sociable evenings. State-of-the-art amenities such as an electronically controlled pellet stove and electric oil radiators provide cosy warmth. Upstairs, the master bedroom, a single bedroom and a balcony room with high-quality beds and comprehensive washing facilities invite you to enjoy a restful night's sleep.

The outside area of the chalet is a true paradise. The spacious terrace with its lush planting and large awning guarantees privacy and protection. Panoramic sliding windows seamlessly extend the living space into the outdoor area, where a mobile barbecue invites you to enjoy unforgettable barbecue evenings. Here you can enjoy the sun in complete peace and quiet or relax under the stars on cosy nights.

The area around Quinten-Au offers a wide range of activities for nature lovers and adventure-seekers. In winter, the scheduled boat takes you from the Au boat station directly to Unterterzen, where a cable car takes you to the Flumserberg ski area. During the rest of the year, the mild climate is perfect for hiking and water sports on Lake Walen. Whether you explore the local culture in the nearby idyllic towns such as Walenstadt and Weesen or immerse yourself in the diversity of the landscape - there is something for everyone to discover here.

Let yourself be seduced by the magical world of the Chalet am Walensee in Quinten-Au. Here, the comfort of your second home is combined with the majestic natural beauty and cultural riches of Eastern Switzerland. An oasis of peace and adventure awaits you - the perfect place to recharge your batteries and create unforgettable memories.
