Description

This section of the Klosters circular hiking trail passes houses and stables, over meadows and through the forest until you reach the Walser settlement Schlappin. Schlappin was inhabited year-round until the 17th century. Even today, hikers have the opportunity to take a break there, have a meal or even spend the night. If you would like to stay overnight in Schlappin, find more information here: www.schlappin.ch.

Hidden Gem

Take a longer break at Schlappinsee – maybe dip your feet in the cold water or explore the narrow little village of Schlappin?

Directions

Follow the signpost at Hotel Alpina (opposite the train station) towards "Alpenrösli." At the church, cross the street and follow the street directly beside the "Kirchplatz" bus stop upwards. Continue following the signs towards Alpenrösli mountain inn. Here you have the opportunity to combine the experience of the wonderful viewpoint with a refreshment at the mountain inn. At Alpenrösli, follow the signs through the forest downwards towards "Klosters" and later towards "In da Mura." The path, marked by trail signs, leads over a meadow and between houses. As soon as you reach the main road, follow the signs towards "Schlappintobel" and "Schlappin." The path leads down to Schlappinstrasse. Follow the road for a short distance until you reach a signpost with "Schlappin" written twice. To avoid following the road all the time, take the meadow path. This leads you to Schlappin. As soon as you see the lake, cross the bridge and you will reach the Walser settlement Schlappin. 


Optional starting point: Klosters Dorf train station (always follow the signs towards Schlappin)
