Directions

Let's start in the heart of Falera. From here, the path leads once over Larnags to Laax-Murschetg. Or in other words: from the fixed star Sun to the planet Pluto. This corresponds to a distance of almost six billion kilometers. But don't worry, you don't have to master that many today: With a scale of 1:4 billion, you cover four million kilometers in the universe for every meter on the planet path.

And there is much to discover: Sun, Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto – all represented in the form of unique sculptures. As you wander through the solar system like this, you won't even notice the time passing. And suddenly, you are standing at the idyllic Laaxersee, where you can enjoy a proper cooling off at the end of your route. When you are ready, you complete the round back to Falera.
