This incline (Schrägaufzug) is located at Lochezen on the Walensee lake, near Walenstadt.
It was built to reach a lime and cement quarry which is not operated anymore.
It is also the place where are tested the iron safety nets which are used to stop falls of stones.
Today, it is possible to visit the old quarry with its old remainings of an industrial railway.

The gauge of the Lochezen incline is around 3 meters, that is the widest gauge of Switzerland!
