The Parc Ela, the largest nature park in Switzerland, which unites the three language cultures Romansh, German and Italian. With steep mountain peaks and vast landscapes surrounded by glaciers and mountain lakes, the park still offers a real wilderness feeling. Visit the Church of St. Peter Mistail in Alvaschein. The former monastery church was built around 800 in the time of Charlemagne. Characteristic of the Carolingian church are the unstructured, flat-roofed church hall and the three apses, which have been preserved in their original form in Mistail.

Description
Lantsch/Lenz is the gateway to Parc Ela, the largest nature park in Switzerland. Passing the mountain huts of Tschividains, the route leads to the chapel of Son Cassian. The "La Tor" house, a medieval customs station, is still a reminder of the importance of Lantsch/Lenz as a port station on the Septimerweg. Prehistoric finds at the "Bot da Loz" hill and the church of St. Mary with its wrought-iron grave crosses are further cultural highlights, as is the Carolingian church of St. Peter Mistail (Alvaschein). At the confluence of the Julia and Albula rivers, Via Sett crosses the former customs bridge to Tiefencastel.
