Leisurely valley hike along the railway line. T1
Details
Description
We start our hiking trip with a train ride to the Oberalp Pass. We are greeted by the lighthouse, the former underfire of Hoek van Holland, which has been in service for 70 years at the mouth of the Rhine at the other end of the Rhine. Our path starts right there and we walk down the valley along the pass road. After crossing the road, we find ourselves on the former railway line of the Matterhorn Gotthard Bahn, which used to run openly around the flank of Piz Calmot. Today, however, the railway largely disappears in a tunnel, a little later in a semi-open gallery. If it suddenly hums and rumbles: don't be frightened! There is a train on the way. In July we walk in an alpine flower garden that inspires: Turk's bunch, paradise and fire lilies, orchids or alpine roses.
Halfway we reach a picnic area on the right side with a view of the valley. A little later, where the train leaves the tunnel again, we cross a rushing mountain stream on the train viaduct after which we reach the stop directly on a newly created hiking trail.
In Chamut there is currently no possibility to stop for refreshments.
Geheimtipp
In July, the Turkish League blooms along the way
Sicherheitshinweis
The picnic area on the way is completely exposed to the sun! Caution should be exercised when crossing the pass route. The path is not suitable for prams.
Directions
From the Oberalp Pass we follow the red and white marked hiking trail in the direction of Rheinquelle/Tomasee. After about 600 meters we cross the pass route to the left and follow the wide, signposted path to Tschamut.
