About Mols
Mols is a small lakeside village in the municipality of Quarten, on the southern shore of the Walensee. Its boat landing sits beside the former railway station, and cruise boats also call at Unterterzen, Murg and the car-free hamlet of Quinten across the water. The lake has freely accessible swimming areas, paddleboards and kayaks to hire at Unterterzen and Murg, and a name for windsurfing when the föhn blows. The homes are clustered close to the village and run from small to large groups, with plenty offering a sauna or a fireplace. In winter the draw is uphill: the SeeJet gondola from Unterterzen climbs towards Flumserberg. Buses to Walenstadt and Flums stop at the old station.
