Description

On the road in the direction of Vals, we "roll in" and after about ten kilometres follow the signpost to Val Lumnezia. At the back of the valley lies the picturesque village of Vrin. This was awarded the Wakker Prize in 1998 and in 2010 it was awarded a "European Village Renewal Award for holistic, sustainable and motto-based village development of outstanding quality".

In the village bakery we fortify ourselves for the upcoming 600 meters of altitude. The ascent on mostly gravel and concrete roads to Alp Nova, which is over 2000 metres above sea level, flies by thanks to the exciting single trail and a pedestrian wooden bridge.

The rewards for the exertions of the ascent are the peace and quiet and the view of the surrounding mountains. We treat ourselves to further refreshment for the descent on the sun terrace in the Wali mountain restaurant, in the Waschchrüt mountain pasture restaurant or on Alp Stavonas in midsummer. Because the fast hard surface and gravel roads to the starting point in Ilanz require full concentration again.

On the banks of the Rhine, we congratulate each other for this achievement!

Geheimtipp

There are various options for catering along the way:

If you are on the road with the e-gravel, you will find various charging stations along the way.

At Silgin, between Surcasti and Vrin, there is an imposing suspension bridge. If you want, follow the hiking trail sign and bike route 222 in Silgin and ride over the steep but easy single trail up and over the suspension bridge.
