Details

Description

The hike starts at Filisur station. From there, you follow Bahnhofstrasse to the first fork. Here, turn right and continue along the road to the next signpost. At this point, leave the road and turn left onto the marked hiking trail. The path leads through the forest and runs parallel to the railway line. After a short ascent, you reach the Acatos viewing platform, which offers an impressive view of the Landwasser Viaduct. From the Acatos viewing platform, return the same way to the first junction, which takes about ten minutes. There, turn right and follow the path towards Landwasser Viaduct. The hiking trail initially goes under the railway track, then down a staircase and subsequently quite steeply downhill to the parking lot. From the parking lot, follow the signposted trail that leads directly to the foot of the impressive Landwasser Viaduct.
