Description

The Benis Boden is an area that is still considered an insider tip by many. Located above Tamins on the southern slope of the Kunkel, it is virtually an island in the middle of the Sea of the Sun. The sun's rays make it to the bottom of Benis practically all day long and the rock face of Kunkel and Calanda warms this island additionally, which means that there is an almost Mediterranean climate up here. Numerous lizards and even snakes are visible here. And of course, this also ensures that the Benis Boden Trail is snow-free practically all year round.

Via a leisurely access you can reach the Benis Boden from Tamins. In summer, the Swiss family Feuerstelle invites you to enjoy the view over the Rhine Valley and the Domleschg a little longer. The trail starts directly after a turnstile almost at the highest point of the Benis Boden. After that, the relatively narrow trail with an even gradient leads towards Felsberg. The soft and grippy forest floor invites you to quickly pick up more speed. With a lot of flow, it goes over short root passages, field meadows and stony sections before you finally reach the cycle path between Felsberg and Tamins.
