Gorges of Switzerland: Taminaschlucht

Taminaschlucht is the gorge of the Tamina river, which we visited with my parents a few weeks ago. From Bad Ragaz, it was a nice 4-km-walk along the river until we reached the most narrow part of the valley, where two, almost parallel walls of rock faced each other less than 10 m apart. There is a path constructed along the gorge leading to the grotto of a small thermal spring (as we learned here, this healing spring known as Bad Pfäfers was already used for medical purposes in the Middle Ages).
