Description

The route starts on the road between Rueun and Pigniu, at the chapel Sogn Francestg. Ideal for warming up are the slopes above alpine meadows up to Alp Miez. At the latest here, probably the first longer break is due. The extensive slopes of Alp da Rueun repeatedly feature short and steeper slopes the higher you get. Under difficult conditions, these should not be underestimated. The word "Fil" comes from the Romance language and means something like ridge or crest. In this case, the ridge is long stretched and could almost be walked endlessly. We describe the route up to point 2344. One could also receive the summit kiss already at point 2350 - depending on the...!

The descent basically takes place on the ascent route. It allows some room for minor variations. Those who want can also descend from Alp Stiarls to the mountain village of Siat.

Hidden Gem

The route is also ideal as a round route with snowshoes. Here is the route.

Safety Note

Ski and snowshoe routes in unsecured terrain require good knowledge in avalanche risk assessment and route planning. Furthermore, a full safety gear must always be carried – regardless of the current avalanche risk.

For preparation and planning of the route, we recommend the app and website of WhiteRisk.

For carefree enjoyment, we recommend our mountain guides and snowshoe hiking leaders of the Surselva.
