Seeztal

The Seeztal (English: Seez Valley) is a valley in the canton of St. Gallen, Switzerland, extending to the east of Lake Walen (Walensee) for some 10 km (6.2 mi) and followed by the lower portion of the river Seez (its upper portion flows through the Weisstannental).

The Seeztal appears to be a left branch off the Alpine Rhine valley at Sargans, but there is a divide at Mels.

The Seeztal lies along the shortest route between the cities of Chur (the capital of the canton of Grisons) and Zürich (Switzerland's largest city).

The Seez rises from a glacier at Chli Schiben at 2,090 m (6,860 ft) a.s.l.

It first flows in a northeast direction past Weisstannen through the Weisstannen Valley (Weisstannental) until it reaches Mels, where the river takes a sharp turn in northwest direction.
