Description

Day 1: Ilanz-Vrin-Vella

1400 m elevation gain, 850 TM, 37 km, approx. 4 hours riding time

From Ilanz, the first town on the Rhine, you ride your e-mountainbike into the culturally rich Lumnezia region with its picturesque villages and numerous churches and chapels. The start along the main road (7 km) is perhaps not the most beautiful part of the tour. From Peiden Bogn, however, it becomes beautiful. We took the tour along the new uphill trail built in 2023 (222 Nino Schurter Bike). This part is technically and physically demanding and can easily be simplified via the main road to Uors. Now follows an enjoyable route through the Lumnezia, over a suspension bridge in Silgin (can be bypassed) and to Vrin at the end of the valley. Numerous medium to easy single trails and gravel roads now await you as far as the Davos Munt bathing lake and on to Vella, today's destination.

Day 2: Vella-Obersaxen-Trun-Brigels

1450 m ascent, 1450 m descent, 40 km, approx. 4.5 hours riding time

The day's stage takes you around the mountain range with the peaks of Piz Mundaun and Péz Sezner to Obersaxen Mundaun. At the Bündner Rigi, you can enjoy one of the best panoramas in the Surselva. The short single trail at Sogn Carli (can be bypassed) is a real treat for most cyclists. The tour now leads through the whole of Obersaxen and down to Trun and the Rhine. After the final ascent via the village and alpine road to the Breil/Brigels sun terrace, you reach the day's destination.

Day 3: Brigels-Lag da Pigniu-Siat-Ruschein-Ilanz

700 m ascent, 1300 tm, 31 km, approx. 3 hours riding time

To start with, you head for the impressive waterfalls at the back of Lag da Pigniu. After a well-deserved rest, you will tackle the last few kilometers and meters in altitude over side and gravel roads to the two villages of Siat and Ruschein. This route takes you down to Ilanz on a moderately difficult single trail. However, you can also choose a shot ride along the mountain road as your final bouquet. And then you're back in the lively little town of Ilanz.

Elevation gain, distances and riding times are approximate.
