Description

The circular hike starts in the spa town of Andeer and leads over the covered wooden bridge to the left side of the Hinterrhein. After the playground, take the forest path that leads up to the left. In a large bend to the right, the trail continues into the forest. We follow the forest path until it joins the forest road. Continue along the forest road until you reach the Cagliatscha Davains fireplace, where you take the hiking trail at the bend in the road towards the Cagliatscha ruins. The castle, built around 1266, is open to the public. From the inviting fireplace right next to it, you can enjoy a magnificent view of the Val Schons.

A mountain hiking trail then takes you down to Clugin. A visit to the listed church with its fairly well-preserved wall paintings inside the church from the first half of the 14th century by the Waltensburg Master is well worthwhile. Take the wide hiking trail of the historic viaSpluga back to Andeer.
