circular hike lower Segnesboden

The best way to experience the plateau around Lower Segnesboden is on foot—on a hike starting from the Segnes mountain station. After just a few steps, it becomes clear: this landscape is truly special. Lower Segnesboden is listed in the national inventory of fens of exceptional beauty and significance—and is one of only two fen areas in Switzerland with no trace of past settlement.

What awaits you along the way? A natural spectacle that is constantly changing. The streams meander through the valley, here and there. New small lakes form—and then disappear again. Every visit is different. And that is exactly what makes this place so fascinating. The cozy Segnes Hut also invites you to take a break and offers you a perfect spot with a view of the plateau.

From Flims, take the new FlemX gondola lift up to the Segnes station. There you will find the Segnes Hut with its inviting sun terrace, as well as the Sardona Visitor Centre, which offers a wealth of information about the Sardona World Heritage Site and the formation of the Alps. From Segnes, the hiking trail leads gently downhill to the lower Segnesboden. Follow the path on the right-hand side of the plain towards the Tschingelhörner. About halfway along, you’ll find the waterfall where the Flem stream has its source. On the way back, the path climbs over the Grauberg – sure-footedness is required here. The path then descends gently again to the Segnes hut.
