Details
Description
We start the route on side roads and driveways from Disentis via Segnas to Mompé Tujetsch. If despite e-assistance we needed more power than expected, we can recover a bit on the descent down to the Rhine. Past the pretty alpine meadows of Mises Las Cavorgia we pedal uphill again to Cavorgia, a small village inhabited all year round. The nicest spot to take a break is definitely around the chapel.
We continue on the right side of the Rhine (flow direction) past Lag da Claus and later past the Vorderrhein power station to Selva. Here we switch to the cantonal road, which we can leave again at Surpalits, at the height of the Ziegenalp Milez towards Maighels.
The path winds in wide bends, sometimes steeper, sometimes a little flatter, up to Lai Urlaun. We can even manage the last steep "push" to the hut easily with the bike.
For the return trip we choose the cantonal road back to Disentis.
Hidden Gem
The Maighelshütte has an extensive food and drink menu. Beer on tap or rather cappuccino with fruit cake?!
Safety Note
During the holiday season there is sometimes heavy traffic on the cantonal road.
Equipment
Swimwear, the water of Lai Urlaun is very refreshing.
Directions
From Disentis train station we follow the signs to Segnas and Mompé Tujetsch. Here we turn left down to the main road. After the bridge, continue immediately downhill to the Rhine. On the other side, turn right to Cavorgia and Sedrun. At Lag da Claus, below Surrein, we stay on the left side of the Rhine, ride up to Surrein and continue to the Vorderrhein power station. Go straight ahead and just before the playground stay on the asphalt road. This leads up to the junction to the wide hiking trail to Selva. From Selva change to the cantonal road and follow it to the junction for Alp Milez. At the alpine hut we leave the asphalt again and turn right onto the natural road to the Maighelshütte.
The return trip leads from the Maighelshütte to the cantonal road the same way. From here we stay on the cantonal road to Bugnei, where we switch to a wide hiking trail.
