Description

The Tschentaneras trail in Castrisch is groomed for classic and skating and is approx. 5 km long. It is centrally located and easily accessible by car and public transport. You can enjoy a wonderful view of the Surselva mountains. The village of Castrisch is located at the entrance to the Ruinaulta, the Rhine Gorge - also known as the “Swiss Grand Canyon”. The history of the Ruinaulta began with the huge Flims landslide around 10,000 years ago. The Rhine was dammed up and carved its way over thousands of years - forming the Ruinaulta.

The trail is only 700 meters above sea level and is not always spoiled with snow.
