Details

Description

The approach to the summit of the Laaxer Stöckli demands a lot from you – after all, you've already pedaled quite a way up before the final ascent. However, everything except the last few meters is rideable. Once you reach the top, the panorama will likely take your breath away. The view of the surrounding Grisons mountains from here is breathtaking. A clear case for a "selfie with a view."

Now full concentration is required: The descent starts off very technical on the blue-white marked hiking trail, which soon becomes somewhat easier (red-white marked trail). All too soon, you'll be back at the Vorab restaurant (closed in summer). Continue your descent directly on the Vorab Trail – and if you have fresh brake pads and strong legs, you'll descend another almost 2000 meters all the way down to the Rhine.

Safety Note

The weather in the Alps can change quickly: to be on the safe side, pack a rain jacket and a warm layer.
