Details
Description
The ascent at the start of the route is richly rewarded. At the height of Huot, the view extends over the vast Surselva. In former times, people stayed "at the Huot" to detect enemies or fire early. Today it is a peaceful viewpoint and well worth a long rest.
The hike continues past the Walserstall. This stall houses an interesting collection of various objects and tools from local agriculture of past times.
The route runs over well-developed hiking trails or enjoyable side roads and is therefore easy to walk. However, a few altitude meters still have to be mastered.
Hidden Gem
Besides the view of the scenic landscape, it is also worth taking a look into the past. Visit the Walserstall and discover the agriculture of bygone times.
Behind Huot, there is an old lime kiln by the wayside. It is open for viewing.
Safety Note
The route should not be started in uncertain weather conditions. Weather changes are common in the mountains. If a rain front or something similar approaches during the hike, you should turn back in good time.
