These altitude meter statistics are impressive. You simply take the chairlift to Burleun and then let the tunnels whir. This short version of the Brigelser Bahnentour is also technically easy and runs partly on the alpine road. Pure enjoyment and just right for a short jaunt.

Description

But take the chairlift from the Brigelser reservoir to Burleun. The view back to the village is the first highlight. And now, off to the saddle. The first 300 meters are along the road until you can take the hiking trail at the first bend. After this short burst of trail fun, you can relax again and whizz along the road to Grap Gries. From here, the route climbs around 60 meters uphill on the road before an enjoyable single trail takes you downhill. After just 300 meters downhill, you have to take a sharp left onto the next trail. This is really fun. With short ramps and many flowing sections, the trail leads under the Sogn Sievi chapel to Mulin. A short climb over the road and a final shot on a trail and you're back at the valley station. Ready for the next ride.

We have also published other variants.

Geheimtipp

-If you don't like single trails, you can also use the Burleun mountain station as a starting point for very long panoramic tours on the Alpstrasse.

The Brigels mountain railroads do not carry e-bikes on the cable car.

Sicherheitshinweis

The tour should not be undertaken in uncertain weather conditions. Weather changes are frequent in the mountains. If a rain front or similar is approaching during the hike, you should turn back in good time.
