Crown hike: Vals (Zerfreila) - Läntahütte (stage 6)

The post bus takes you to the starting point at the Zervreila reservoir. Along the lake and later along the Valser Rhine, the easy hike leads leisurely and without notable ascent past the Lampertschalp into the high valley of Länta, where you are very close to the glaciers and snow peaks of the Rheinwaldhorn group.

Läntahütte "The Charming"

Located at 2090 meters altitude at the foot of the Rheinwaldhorn in the heart of the Adula Alps, the Länta is both a professionally managed mountain hut and a charming base camp for discovery tours at the top of the Valsertal in Graubünden. Founded over 100 years ago by enthusiastic mountaineers and climbers, the spirit of adventure has been preserved to this day. Nestled in a rugged landscape of stone, water, and ice, the Läntahütte SAC offers an authentic stay in the high mountains despite all modernizations. With good food, unpretentious hospitality, and a sense for romantic moments. The hut accommodates 33 people and is continuously open and staffed from mid-June to mid-October and from early March to early May.
