Details

Description

Immediately after the start in Ilanz, the first crisp ascent begins on the gravel road to Flond. The route then continues less steeply along forest and woodland paths to Surcuolm and finally up to the Bündner Rigi. After this feat of strength of almost 1000 meters in altitude, it is worth recharging your batteries on the sun terrace of the restaurant of the same name and enjoying the unique view of the Rhine Gorge and the surrounding mountains. After a well-earned rest, the route leads through the forest and over open terrain down to the original villages of Morissen and Vella. This is where the second and very beautiful ascent begins, past the Davos Munts bathing lake, over the Maiensässe of Val Lumnezia up to the highest point of the tour, Alp Nova. From here you can enjoy the long descent down to the valley floor. Once there, you roll along the Vorderrhein back to the starting point in Ilanz.

Geheimtipp

- Enjoy the panorama from the Rigi in Graubünden and the Sogn Carli chapel.

- Soak your toes and quench your thirst in Davos Munts

- Enjoy the gravel track and sinlge trail around the Alp Stavonas to the full

Sicherheitshinweis
