Around 1500 meters of altitude and 1500 meters of depth. That's not bad. Here we present the variant via the newly developed trail from Tegia Dado to Undermatt. The descent thus offers a higher proportion of trails and more distance compared to the direct descent from Piz Mundaun.

Description

The view is remarkable, considering that the Piz Mundaun is just 2064 meters high, you can see from the summit down to 699 meters down to the Ilanz train station. This variant via Undermatt results in a whopping 1500 metres of descent - and this over an even higher proportion of single trails.

The ascent is by post bus from Ilanz to Surcuolm and by train from Cuolm Sura to Piz Mundaun. Only about 300 meters of altitude have to be mastered under your own steam. This from Surcuolm to Cuolm Sura and a short distance from Flond.

After all, 1100 meters of ascent can be saved without having to put up with the accusation that you didn't pedal at all. Many, partly newly built single trails, short sections over alpine roads and forest paths bring you back to the starting point in less than two hours, where most people sum up that not only the view was remarkable.

Attention: Shortly before Luven there is a diversion due to the risk of falling rocks. This is clearly visible in the terrain and this route has been adapted accordingly. The village of Luven is bypassed by this. But if you still want to visit Luven, you have to take a short counter climb under the pedals.

Geheimtipp

Please note the operating hours of the Obersaxen cable cars

A visit to the viewing platform on the Piz Mundaun is definitely worthwhile.

There are signaled variants between Cuolm Sura and Flond. These are indicated as blue, red or black. Choose freely. A little later you are back on the normal route.

With the E-MTB you can even ride all the way up the Piz Mundaun - technically demanding in parts but awesome...

Stop at Leo's Snackbar in Undermatt with e-bike charging station - so you can continue riding afterwards...

Sicherheitshinweis

In case of uncertain weather conditions, the tour should not be started. Weather changes in the mountains are frequent. If a rain front or similar comes up during the tour, you should turn back in time.

Respect other trail users - trail tolerance!
