    Hello Yasyip,

    Please find the station map attached. Consulting the map it could just be a little short, considering a few minutes delay can even happen in Switzerland.. 🙂
    It also depends on how much luggage you have, etc. Do you not have a connection offering you a little more time?

    I hope the map helps your decision.

    Best,
    Steph

    5 minutes should be enough. 3 minutes is the official minimum connecting time at Sargans.

    Nevertheless it would be useful to know what journey you are making to understand the reason for the tight timing
