Familienwanderung Disentis - Cumpadials

We hike near the Rhine - the splashing of the water always accompanies us. The first highlight is Disla, a picturesque village with typical local houses and various old craft workshops. The cheese dairy, the flour mill, the sawmill and other buildings are always open on Swiss Museum Day.  The former smithy has become a cute restaurant, where an ice cream can be fetched for the children. The path continues to Madernal where we meet a relic from earlier times: an anti-tank barrier. We stay on the left side of the Rhine and change after the hydroelectric power station Russein on a hiking trail through a fairy forest with mossy stones and old tree trunks. Part of the path leads over a newly created wooden walkway, which has been artfully mounted into the unstable slope.  Once we have reached the meadow in Plaun Petschen with playground, fireplace, beach volley field and a small swimming lake, we prepare ourselves for a longer stay. To the train station in Sumvirg we calculate about 20 minutes. From here, the Rhaetian Railway takes us back to Disentis.

At the train station in Sumvitg there is a restaurant: Ustria dalla Staziun

From Disentis train station we follow the natural road to Cavardiras to the bridge in Brulf. Here we turn left and walk to Disla. The Ustria Fravia is located next to the chapel, not directly on our hiking route. The trail junction for the planned hike is located in Disla in the middle of the village, about 200 m before the Ustria. In Madernal we get from the hiking trail to a road. We keep to the right on this road. Before the bridge we turn left again. At the power plant, the road ends and a hiking trail leads behind the building into the forest. After the forest we reach the bridge over the Rhine, which we cross. The playground and barbecue area is located just to the right after the bridge. To sumvitg railway station we take the road to Sumvitg. Observe the directions at the bridge. First comes Cumpadials, then we turn left up to Sumvitg. Below Sumvitg, the turnoff is to the right to the train station.
