Description

The GPS track shows a round trip, but we recommend it as an outward and return trip. This means either starting in Vrin (public transport connection) or by car from Sogn Giusep.

The tour from the village of Vrin is a little more challenging in the summit area. You climb directly over the alpine meadows of Prada and reach Alp Dado after about 500 meters in altitude. Now it becomes more challenging in terms of avalanches, as steep slopes have to be negotiated again and again or you are in the area of influence of steep slopes. The ascent to the summit involves a few hairpin bends and should not be underestimated. The space at the highest point is limited, but the panorama is definitely not. Now you can either descend along the ascent track or take the route via Sogn Giusep. With the disadvantage of having to walk along the valley road at the end.

The ascent from Sogn Giusep requires access by car. This tour is somewhat easier, but still has a few steeper sections. Up to the height of Stavel Liung at around 2000 m above sea level, the route climbs over alpine meadows. Just right for a run-in. Continue over puozas to below the summit. You often have to make a ski depot here. The summit grade is regularly blown off. Theoretically, you could now ski down via Alp Dado. But if you have a car in Sogn Giusep, you have to solve this logistical problem.

The temptation is great to descend via Alp Cuolm. However, this area is a wildlife rest zone and is closed from 01.12. to 15.04. Please be sure to respect this!

Sicherheitshinweis

Ski and snowshoe tours in unsecured terrain require a good knowledge of avalanche risk assessment and tour planning. Furthermore, complete safety equipment must always be carried - regardless of the current avalanche risk.

We recommend using the WhiteRisk app and website to prepare and plan your tour.

For carefree enjoyment, we recommend our mountain guides and snowshoe hiking guides in the Surselva.

Public Facility Surselva

Ställe und Schlachthof von G.A. Caminada, Vrin

In 1998 Vrin received the Wakker Prize for the exemplary classification of new agricultural buildings in the villagescape. Because of their decentralized location outside the village, the local architect G.A. Caminada was looking for ways to give the buildings a reference to the core village. He found them in the material: of course in the ubiquitous wood, but also in the quarry stone, which can be found everywhere in the village.

Church Surselva

Church Nossadunna e Sogn Gion Battesta, Vrin

In the furthest village in Val Lumnezia, a colorful southern tower points the way to the church. The imposing building was erected at the end of the 17th century by Antonio Broggio from Roveredo in Misox. The forces are high in almost the entire church, which is an exception. It is highly probable that the chapel was built on a pre-Christian place of worship.

Attraction Surselva

Stiva da morts /Totenstube, Vrin

The mortuary borders on the cemetery and parish church in Vrin. The "Stiva da morts" is more than just a parlour: it offers the possibility of retreat on the one hand and communality on the other. The "Stiva" offers space for the dead and the living. With its novel sequence of rooms, the mortuary makes a change in the way death is dealt with possible in the first place.
