Description

At the train station in Disentis we start towards the village church, then past the Wool Carding Factory to the chapel Sontga Gada. Down on the Rhine, in Cuflons, there is a nice fireplace if a barbecue lunch is planned. After a bridge, whose foundations date back to Roman times, we drive in a slight up and down along the rushing Rhine. In between, we allow ourselves a deep view into the creek bed, where glacier pots filled with clear water glitter.

Once in Fontanivas, the children will be amazed by the water playground. But before we finish the round, we get an ice cream at the kiosk of the campsite.

This gives energy for the short ascent to Salaplauna. If necessary, we just push a few meters. Once at the top, the final highlight is the stone-lined path with a view of the village with the monastery.

Geheimtipp

Barbecue lunch in Cuflons and for dessert an ice cream at camping Fontanivas

From Disentis train station we start in the direction of the village church. After the church we turn off lins, following the signpost "Horticultura". At the height of the Sontga Gada chapel, a wide hiking trail leads down to Cuflons. To the right of the bridge is the fireplace. After the bridge we turn left. We cross under the Lukmanier pass road and follow it a hundred meters in the direction of Disentis. At the access road to the campsite it goes down. We drive right at the lake and along the Rehin until the descent of the hiking trail that leads left up to Disentis. After the stone-lined path we drive over the bridge, turn right. We meet the access road to Cavardiras and turn left to the train station.
