Description

The Schanfigg Village Trail connects the villages of the Schanfigg valley from Chur to Arosa on both sides of the valley for hikers. On the 53 km long (mountain) hiking trail, traditional and authentic village culture can be experienced.

The Schanfigg Village Trail leads through intact and varied landscapes with magnificent views, through meadows and forests, over Töbel and past mountain pastures and, last but not least, through the villages with their characteristic wood-knit buildings, the farm and village shops, restaurants and broom pubs. The alternation of natural and cultural landscapes can be experienced at every turn, as the magnificent landscapes at the Gründji & Frauentobel are able to show, for example.

The Village Trail enriches the range of hiking opportunities in the Schanfigg. Thanks to the good connection of the villages to public transport, the stages can be shortened and a variety of circular hikes can also be planned, e.g. in connection with the Schanfigger Höhenweg.
