Wandernacht durch die Viamala-Schlucht

The hike follows the historic viaSpluga from Thusis to Andeer, once an important trade route to Italy.
Following in the footsteps of the old mule track, the trail leads through the Viamala at night. You start in Thusis on the varied "Veia Traversina" route, which runs along the Hinterrhein past the imposing Palazzo in Sils i.D., over Ehrenfels Castle and past the impressive Hohen Rätien castle complex.
A particularly picturesque section then awaits with a real highlight: the Traversinersteg. This spectacular, almost 60-metre-long suspension bridge construction has already won several international awards.
After reaching the visitor center of the Viamala Gorge, a descent of 359 steps leads down to the millennia-old whirlpools. Here you can take a well-earned break to enjoy the mystical atmosphere with a picnic from your own rucksack.
The route continues via Zillis to Andeer, where a delicious breakfast buffet awaits you at the Hotel Fravi. At the end of the hike, the Andeer mineral spa opens its doors exclusively, a perfect opportunity to relax and reflect.
