Description

The area between the 3 mountain railways of Chur-Dreibündenstein (Brambrüesch), Pradaschier and Feldis is a paradise for snow shoeing. The high plateau in the centre of these areas offers spectacular panorama views of the surrounding mountain scenery (Calanda, Arosa, Lenzerheide, Flims-Laax and Surselva). The peak point where the different routes merge is the landmark of the Dreibündenstein at 2160 m, a stone monument to the freedom fighters of Graubünden, which marks the common border point of the former Three Leagues of Raetia. This signposted route goes from Brambrüesch to the Dreibündenstein and back to Brambrüesch (GR 4).

Description

From Chur, this varied route first leads along the Plessur river to Meiersboden. There the beautiful ascent begins, which first leads to Passugg. After a short stretch on the road follows the further ascent to Churwalden on the very worthwhile "Polenweg", which was extended by Poles from 1940-44 and thus got its name. In Churwalden then follows the actual ascent on the "Jochwäg", at the beginning on a mountain road, later on forest roads through forests and over beautiful alps ever higher up to the actual summit destination - the Churer Joch. Magnificent alpine flora and views of the mountain world of Lenzerheide characterize the beautiful ascent. For the rewarding deep view down to the Alpine City of Chur and the mighty Calanda massif behind it, it is worth making the short climb to the highest point and all the way to the front.

Now follows a long descent on the other side of the Joch. The landscape and view here is no less attractive than on the other side, because now you look directly into the Schanfigg valley with its picturesque Walser villages and mountain landscapes. After the short counter-ascension, the mighty Arosa Weisshorn also shows itself from the rear side at the Hühnerköpfe mountain restaurant. The further descent follows the mountain road, past the beautiful Furgglis mountain restaurant to the Walser village of Tschiertschen. Whether in one of the mountain restaurants or in Tschiertschen itself in the Hotel/Restaurant Alpina on the large panorama terrace, a stopover is definitely worthwhile. Finally, there is the descent on the little-used mountain road to Passugg and from there back on the ascent route 255 via Meiersboden back to Chur.

Directions

From Chur ascent on the bikeroute 255 (Brambrüesch) to Churwalden. From there on the mountain road via Vargan to Foppa, where you follow the last part of the ascent on bikeroute 634 (Arosa Lenzerheide Rundtour) to the Joch. The descent is also on this route until point 1735 between Waldstafel and Furgglis. From there the further descent takes place on the mountain road to Tschiertschen and further to Passugg. From Passugg follow the initial ascent route (255 Brambrüesch) back to Chur.

Directions

Public Transport

Chur train station is easily accessible by SBB (Swiss Federal Railways), Rhaetian Railways, Postbus or Chur Bus.

Anreise Information

Description

From the beautiful Alpine City of Chur, this varied route first leads along the Plessur river to Meiersboden. There begins the beautiful climb, which first leads to Passugg. The small village above Chur is known throughout Switzerland for the "Passugger" mineral water, which springs here from the legendary Theophil spring in the rough and wild Rabiosa gorge. The gorge is not on the route, but a short detour to the drinking hall is definitely worthwhile and recommended, because there the unruly Rabiosa gorge unfolds in its full glory. After a short stretch on the road follows the further ascent to Churwalden on the very worthwhile "Polenweg", which was extended by Polish people from 1940-44 and thus got its name.

Among other things, Churwalden is known for its adventure mountain Pradaschier and the longest toboggan run in Switzerland. A detour to the valley station, where a ticket can be purchased for the chairlift and a descent on the toboggan run is tempting (there is also a splendid mountain restaurant at the top). From Churwalden finally follows an ascent on a forest path and then a descent and traverse to the mountain road that leads to Brambrüesch. On the beautiful plateau you can not only refuel culinary, at the Brambus Center there is also a charging station for e-bikes and in the immediate vicinity there is also a moor course to see.

Finally, there is the enjoyable and panoramic descent from Brambrüesch to Chur, for the most part on forest paths. If you are technically skilled and have a full-suspension bike with you, you can also whiz down into the valley on the blue signaled freeride route in the Alpenbikepark Chur (the red and black routes are more recommended for thoroughbred downhillers). Back in Chur, it's worth taking a detour to the picturesque and car-free old town. 

Directions

This loop is completely signposted as mountain bike route 255 "Brambrüesch Tour". Only the detour to the Pradaschier valley station in Churwalden is a small additional loop - as an option for a visit to the adventure mountain with mountain restaurant, toboggan run, rope park and zipline.
