The more than 500 hm, mainly on gravel roads, have it all. But for what comes afterwards, it is worth it.

Description

We deserve this descent. The ascent to the Churer Joch is a tough one. At the start, the ascent is steep, then on the level of the Oberberg it keeps within limits before it gets steeper again. But it is worth it, the view from there is breathtaking.

Safety Note

Around 500 vertical meters, half on paved and half on gravel road are mostly pleasant, but get a bit exhausting the closer you get to your target. But for what comes afterwards, it is worth it.

This trail is also used by hikers. Please follow the trail rules.

Equipment

Wear your armor! Helmet, protectors and bike gloves are standard equipment. You will also be glad to have sun and rain protection and something to drink.

Directions

Stay on the trail! Shortcuts damage nature and lead to illegal sections of trail.
