Description

Due to the low elevation, the Chur Rhine valley offers good mountain biking conditions already at the end of winter time until late in the autumn time. The tour combines attractive single tracks with some ascents and descents, as well as panoramic trails.

Along the tour you will get a good view into the diverse scenery of the  Rhine valley and the Alpine City of Chur. At Rei-chenau/Tamins you will cross the Rhine river just where the Vorder and Hinter Rhine confluence.

Alpine Rhine
The Rhine rises in the Grisons Alps, the Vorderrhein near Lake Toma, Oberalppass in the Surselva and the Hinterrhein near the Rheinwaldhorn in the Hinterrhein/Viamala region. At Reichenau-Tamins, the Vorderrhein and Hinterrhein join to form the Rhine, which then flows past the city of Chur through the Graubünden and St. Gallen Rhine valleys into Lake Constance and on to the North Sea.
