Kronenwanderung: Lukmanierpass - Maighelshütte (Etappe 11)


Show all 6 images

The crown of the Surselva is an impressive and sometimes challenging circular hike from hut to hut in Graubünden. It connects the seven mountain huts in the Surselva - the Anterior Rhine Valley between Flims and the source of the Rhine on the Oberalp Pass, including the valleys of Vals, Lumnezia and Medel.
Details
Description
From the Lukmanier Pass, the path leads over steep serpentines into Val Cadlimo. After a short descent into Val Canaria, the path now winds steeply uphill to the Bornengo Pass at 2631m - the watershed on the main Alpine ridge. The descent on the north side takes us through boulder fields, past colored mountain lakes and hundreds of cairns. The trail continues to follow the watercourse through pastures to the Piogn Crap gorge.
Maighelshütte «The family-friendly one»
The SAC Hut in Val Maighels, which is staffed in summer and winter, is enthroned on the sunny slopes of Piz Cavradi on the way to the source of the Rhine and the Four Springs Trail. The open Val Maighels offers a view of the main Alpine ridge with the Piz Borel and the Bornengo and Maighelspass crossings.
Mineral-rich glacial moraines, steep mountain lakes and gurgling mountain streams invite you to adventure, but also to linger. Multi-day hikes lead into Ticino to the Cadlimo Hut and on to the Lukmanier Pass. The hut is also an ideal place for bikers coming from the Oberalp Pass or Andermatt for lunch or an overnight stay.
