Natural Monument Flims Laax Falera
Alp Mora Whirlpools
Description
Arranged like a string of pearls, the whirlpools on Alp Mora form veritable bathtubs. Sand and gravel in the water have been grinding the grey limestone ridges of the stream for thousands of years. The rocky ridges stem from the Jurassic period and already have a few million years on their clocks.
Directions
Public Transport

The hike from Bargis and back takes about 6.5 hours.
From Trin you walk on the old alpine path always in the shade of the trees until you also reach the avalanche barrier Platt'Alva. The hike to Alp Mora takes about 3 hours. For the descent you add another 2 hours.
