Today is a long day ahead – including a transfer with the Rhaetian Railway. So it's always worth getting up early. The highlights? A small Maiensässbeizli with a great view, a spectacular road through the Rhine Gorge and typical Lower Engadine villages.
Details
Description
The stage starts in the tranquil village of Castrisch. You first follow the official Rhine Cycle Route No. 3. The road climbs only slightly – perfect for breaking in your legs. In Valendas, you can fill your water bottle with fresh mountain spring water – from the largest wooden fountain in Europe. Shortly after Carrera, turn off onto the road to Brno and continue up to Imschlacht. The road and views are amazing. Tip: In the Maiensässbeizli you can fortify yourself with a portion of mountain cheese, salsiz or a nut cake. We continue down into the Safiental. Then comes another highlight: the spectacular panoramic road along the Rhine Gorge. The rock faces of the "Swiss Grand Canyon" tower up 300 metres high. From Bonaduz you roll on side paths to Chur. The section between the capital of Graubünden and Lavin in the Lower Engadine can be bridged patgific (comfortably) on the Rhaetian Railway.
From the Lower Engadine village of Lavin, your muscle power is in demand again. The route to the stage destination takes you on a fine gravel path via Guarda to Scuol. Below you flows the light turquoise Inn. In the Lower Engadine, the landscape is completely different. The sunburnt stables of the Surselva have given way to houses with colorful paintings. The art of "sgraffito", the traditional stucco technique of the region, is mastered by only a few people in the valley. And in Scuol, not only mountain spring water flows, but even mineral water from the wells. Just gschpunna.
Total distance and altitude difference (without public transport route): 66 km, 1400 m elevation gain, 1900 m descent
Geheimtipp
The Trans Grischun leads at regular intervals through inhabited areas, so that you can always find places to stay overnight and adapt the stages to your needs.
Sicherheitshinweis
In case of uncertain weather conditions, the tour should not be started. Weather changes in the mountains are frequent. If a rain front or similar comes up during the tour, you should turn back in time.
