Description

This loop is one of the most popular hikes in the region and for good reason: it not only takes you to the shores of the picturesque Lake Cauma, but also through the "Grand Canyon" of Switzerland. You can also enjoy marvellous views of the Rhine Gorge from several vantage points.

Snowline map  

While at higher altitudes there is at best already snow, the trails in the valley are still free of snow. Our interactive snow depth map helps you to plan your tour. Here you can see at a glance at www.flims.com/schneesituation where you can already expect snow on the paths and trails and where you can still be on the road without getting cold feet. 

Geheimtipp

Pack barbecue items - there are various barbecue areas lying fantastically on the Rhein.

Sicherheitshinweis

The section from Conn to the bridge at the station Valendas-Versam corresponds to the route Ilanz-Rheinschlucht Ruinaulta, but in the opposite direction.

Ausrüstung

Good hiking boots or trekking shoes.

Directions

It starts in Staderas: from there, the trail first leads through a large forest characterised by the Flims landslide to Lake Cauma. A little further on in Conn, you can take a short detour to the Il Spir viewing platform to enjoy a breathtaking view of the Rhine Gorge. A historic path then leads you via Pintrun to Ransun and then down a steep descent into the Rhine Gorge. You walk through the wild and romantic Rhine Gorge, where you will repeatedly pass beautiful picnic and barbecue spots, then return to the starting point via Ual da Mulin and Planezzas.
