Details
Description
The ascent from St. Antönien to Aschüel runs westward crossing the ski lift. Then the ski route follows the marked winter hiking trail through the Wildlife Sanctuary Riedbüel. Out of respect for nature, this section is only crossed on the trail. Shortly before Alp Valpun (1882 m a.s.l.) the route turns southwards and ascends via the easy northern ridge to Chlei Chrüz (2103 m a.s.l.). The final ascent over the eastern ridge to Chrüz (2196 m a.s.l.) is short but steep. From the summit almost the entire Prättigau with its impressive Rätikon ridge in the north should be visible.
Various descent options to St. Antönien, Gadenstätt or Pany are possible.
Hidden Gem
Those who use the Junker ski lift in St. Antönien can shorten the ascent by about 200 meters to 600 meters of elevation gain.
