Description

The mountain tour to Vättis' local mountain is challenging and only recommended for experienced mountaineers. The very steeply ascending mountain trail leads from Vättis through dense fir forest over rocky steps to Gonschrolaboden. You reach the Tüfelschilchli between imposing rock faces. After an easy, airy ridge hike of 1,862 meters, you reach the summit with a fantastic panoramic view. Calanda is home to a large colony of ibex, and you are almost certain to see the proud heraldic animals of Graubünden with their majestic antlers on every tour.

Some parts of the route can be slippery depending on the weather.

Normal hiking equipment, very sturdy mountain boots.
