Description

If you would like to try snowshoeing, this is the perfect tour for you. The tour presents no difficulties whatsoever and can easily be done as a beginner's tour in good weather and safe avalanche conditions. The views from the chapel at S. Carli are also stunning.

In the village of Cumbel, you first walk along the local road to the start just before the Plaun Rueun picnic area. Now you climb up the beautiful south-facing slopes with your snowshoes on your feet. The warm wooden façades of the stables invite you to rest again and again before you reach the Sogn Carli chapel after around 1.5 hours. The panorama over the town of Ilanz, the Rhine gorge and the magnificent 3000 m peaks of the Sardona chain is unique in the Surselva.

The way back now leads over a short stretch of sparse forest near Curschias and onwards across open alpine meadows back to Cumbel.

Geheimtipp

After longer sunny periods, the lower slopes are often without snow. You can then hike up to the snow without snowshoes. Or you can take the summer hiking trail for a while and then switch to snowshoes.

Sicherheitshinweis

This tour is not marked.

Ski and snowshoe tours in unsecured terrain require good knowledge of avalanche risk assessment and tour planning. Furthermore, complete safety equipment must always be carried - regardless of the current avalanche danger.

We recommend using the WhiteRisk app and website to prepare and plan your tour.

For carefree enjoyment, we recommend our mountain guides and snowshoe hiking guides in the Surselva.
