Trun-Sumvitg valley tour

From Trun train station, head towards Camping Trun and follow the “1 Alpine Bike” mountain bike route towards Disentis. The gentle climb through the alder forests along the young Rhine is ideal for warming up for the steep ascent into Val Russein. In Madernal, leave the “1 Alpine Bike” route and follow the “208 Val Russein” mountain bike route. At the main road, you first pass the wooden bridge, which is over 150 years old. It is one of three bridges in the immediate vicinity. The old wooden bridge, a road bridge and a railroad bridge. After five more hairpin bends, you reach point 1222, where the sometimes tricky singletrail turns right towards Sumvitg. After the singletrail pass, the second ascent follows on gravel and tarred roads towards Sogn Benedetg. From S. Benedetg, the route leads mainly over various singletrails down to Rabius and on to Campliun. Now begins the last short ascent to the Nossadunna dalla Glisch chapel, before returning to the starting point in Trun via the Cartatscha avalanche dam.

A visit to the Caplutta / Sogn Benedetg chapel by star architect Peter Zumthor is a must on this route.

In terms of biking, this highlight of the region should not be missed: Bike park, climbing wall and Igniu barbecue area/playground near Rabius. A must before or after the tour.
