Circular hike Gravatscha Innauen

The circular hike starts at the parking lot in Isellas, where the information board about the renaturation project "Innauen" is also located. The path now leads around the lovely Lej Gravatscha, past inviting barbecue areas and a restaurant. On the dam, animals living in and on the water can be observed and, with a bit of luck, even a beaver.

A natural paradise thanks to revitalisation

The Inn floodplains near Bever are the result of one of Switzerland's largest water revitalisation projects. In two stages, the previously canalised Inn was restored to a near-natural state by 2020. Where dams on both sides used to constrain the water, the river can now flow freely – up to 200 metres wide during floods. This dynamic floodplain landscape of national importance is constantly changing due to high and low water levels – the Inn forms new gravel banks, islands and riparian landscapes, creating valuable habitats for rare pioneer plants and endangered animal species such as the common sandpiper. Even a family of beavers feels at home here! The revitalised Inn floodplains are not only a boon for biodiversity, but also an attractive local recreation area that delights locals and visitors alike.
