Loipe Sertiger Klassiker

The Sertig is considered a particularly protected region of Switzerland. Snow-covered pine and larch forests climb the mountain slopes. Peaks such as Mittaghorn, Plattenfluh, and Hoch Ducan form an impressive backdrop. The described trail through the Sertig Valley is about seven kilometers long and overcomes nearly 400 meters in elevation — an ideal endurance training with a magnificent mountain backdrop. The start is in Davos, either from Platz or Frauenkirch. The entire length of the Sertig classic is groomed only for the classic cross-country style; for skaters, the route ends at the Sertig Mill.

At the end of the trail, take a seat on the wonderful sun terrace of the Walserhuus restaurant and enjoy Bündner specialties.

The start of our route is in Davos Frauenkirch. The trail mostly gently ascends along the right valley side following the wild Sertigbach. Through the lower Äbiwald, after about two kilometers, you reach the Sertig Mill. The route now passes numerous Walser settlements as the valley gradually opens up. After about six kilometers, at the Felabach, the highest point of the route is reached. Slightly downhill, you pass the Sertig Village with its striking mountain chapel. Peaks such as Mittaghorn, Plattenfluh, and Hoch Ducan create an impressive backdrop. The last few hundred meters of the trail gently descend and end at the Walserhuus, a hotel-restaurant open all year round.

Return to Davos is along the same path – or you can choose the post bus, which comfortably takes athletes back to Davos Platz via Clavadel.

Those wanting to extend the route can also start from Davos Platz. From here, the Sertig trail is accessible from the valley station of the Jakobshorn cable car via trails 13 and 14.
