Description

You will be surprised at how quickly you transition from Ilanz into the peaceful mountain world. The only somewhat challenging section is the short, steep stretch at Crap da Sevgein. Otherwise, you’ll be walking along easy dirt roads or hiking paths, enjoying the fantastic views and nature.

The tour starts in Ilanz, the first town on the Rhine. You will hike over the Glenner and through the idyllic village of Sevgein. After that, the path climbs relatively steeply to Crap da Sevgein. The tough ascent is rewarded with an incredible panoramic view of the Surselva. Next, continue to the small but charming village of Riein. Then, descend back to Sevgein. Finally, the route follows the Glenner river back to Ilanz.

Hidden Gem

A visit to the villages of Sevgein and Riein is highly recommended. From Crap da Sevgein, you can also enjoy an excellent view of the mountain world around Ilanz.

Safety Note

The tour should not be undertaken in uncertain weather conditions. Weather changes in the mountains are frequent. If a rainfront or similar weather conditions develop during the hike, you should turn back in time.
