Details

Description

The Hörnli-Express gondola comfortably takes you up to the scenic Hörnligrat. From there, you start on foot through the Urdental or take the Urdenbahn at a leisurely pace. At the Urdenfürggli, the path first leads steeply down before the varied ascent begins through a gallery, past rock walls, with wide views over Lenzerheide, up to the Parpaner Rothorn. From Parpaner Rothorn, you can either take the gondola to Lenzerheide or hike back the same way to Arosa.


This scenic hike leads from one summit in Arosa to a summit in Lenzerheide, a unique experience! 

Hidden Gem

Before starting the hike or on the way back, enjoy the legendary cream slice at the Hörnli hut.
