Description

The Surselva is more than just a mountain valley. It is an independent region with its own language (Sursilvan), a history shaped by the Disentis monastery and old mountain passes, and a strong connection to water. The Rhine originates here, at Lake Toma near Oberalppass. Reservoirs provide energy, and the Rabiusa has created one of the most impressive gorges in the Alps with the Ruinaulta and the Flims rockslide.

The hike through the Surselva leads through an intact landscape and offers exciting insights into cultural history – for example in the Reformed church of Waltensburg or at the menhirs of Falera. The end is a walk through the old town of Chur, the oldest city in Switzerland.

Here you will find our two stages:

Stage 3: Sumvitg - Breil/Brigels

Stage 4: Breil/Brigels - Laax
