Spectacular ascent on the old Polenweg trail to the whirlpools on Alp Mora. Whistling marmots, an ice-cold dip in extraordinary whirlpools, and challenging sections with rope passages reward you for this strenuous mountain hike. The spectacular views of the Domleschg and Surselva valleys speak for themselves.

Description

You should plan well for this tour. From Purcs, just below Alp Mora, a bus runs twice a week from July to September, on Wednesdays and Saturdays, down to Trin, the end point of your tour. Find out about the operating- and travel times.

As soon as you leave the flat plateau, a few challenges await you: You walk on narrow, scree-covered rocky ledges along mighty cliffs, peppered with short, rope-secured passages and exposed sections. The magnificent views are well worth a short stop. The route remains varied until you reach your destination of Alp Mora.

An alpine path leads you steeply across alpine meadows to the whirlpools. If you're brave enough, you can take a dip in the ice-cold mountain water and be refreshed for the rest of the route to the bus stop in Purcs.

Get on the bus there and take a leisurely ride back down into the valley to Trin village.

Please note: There are no drinking water fountains on this tour or on Alp Mora to replenish your water supply. So make sure you pack enough!
