Description

Pleasant, technically easy bike tour, which allows you to discover the gorgeous area around Brigels. The idyllic swimming lake, which you circle on the right side, is only minutes away from Brigels Pundual. Then you continue into the direction of Waltensburg passing through Migliè to the valley station Curtginet. Alongside the main road you ride back to the upper part of Waltensburg, where - once you arrive at the junction - you take the exit towards Brigels.

Soon you reach the fire place and shortly after the cave castle Grotta. With children it is definitely worth a visit.

In a slight ascent you ride on the natural street pasing by Munsaus to the view point Crest la Crusch. There you can see the valley plateau from Ilanz towards Disentis. The «Escherstein» is situated here as well. This stone evokes the builders of the communication road Waltensburg-Brigels, which was built in 1870: Escher von der Lindt, de Latour and Simon Bavier, first Federal Council of the canton Grisons.

From here it is not far to the initial point.
