Description

The hike leads from Fontanivas over the suspension bridge into a beautiful, wide meadow landscape. Passing Sevgein and around the castle hill of Castrisch, the path descends to the Isla Sut nature reserve at the entrance to the Ruinaulta, the Rhine Gorge. From the peninsula on the young Rhine it is not far to Castrisch with its picturesque village centre. A cultural highlight is the Evangelical Church of S. Gier with its 14th-century church tower, which is a listed building. From here you can take the romantic hiking trail through secluded alluvial forests and nature reserves along the Anterior Rhine. The scenery with the Brigelser mountains and the Piz Mundaun is something to be proud of. On the outskirts of Ilanz, you follow the Glenner again to the starting point.

Geheimtipp

Cultural highlight of the old town of Ilanz: enchanted alleys, imposing mansions, valuable buildings from the 16th and 17th centuries and much more.

Sicherheitshinweis

In case of uncertain weather conditions, the tour should not be started. Weather changes in the mountains are common. If a bad weather front or similar comes up during the hike, you should turn back in time.

Ausrüstung

Winter-proof footwear and warm clothing are a must. Sun protection, hat, and hiking poles are beneficial.
