Description

The view is remarkable, considering that Piz Mundaun is just 2064 meters high, you can see from the summit down to Ilanz station at 699 meters. In between there are a whopping 1365 meters of descent - and this over a high proportion of single trails. The ascent is by post bus from Ilanz to Surcuolm and by train from Cuolm Sura to Piz Mundaun. Only around 300 meters in altitude have to be mastered under your own steam. This is from Surcuolm to Cuolm Sura and a short stretch from Flond.

At least you can save 1100 meters of ascent without having to put up with the accusation that you didn't pedal at all. Many single trails, some of them newly built, short sections along alpine roads and forest tracks take you back to the starting point in less than two hours, where most people sum up that it wasn't just the view that was remarkable.

Attention: Shortly before Luven there is a detour due to the risk of falling rocks. This is clearly signposted in the terrain and the route has been adapted accordingly. The village of Luven is thus bypassed. However, if you still want to visit Luven, you will have to pedal up a short ascent. 

Geheimtipp

Please note the operating times of the Obersaxen mountain railroads

A visit to the viewing platform on Piz Mundaun is definitely worthwhile.

There are signalized variants between Cuolm Sura and Flond. These are marked blue, red or black. Choose freely. A little later you are back on the normal route.

With an e-MTB, you can even ride all the way up to Piz Mundaun - technically challenging in places but great...

Sicherheitshinweis

Respect other trail users - trail tolerance!

The tour should not be undertaken in uncertain weather conditions. Weather changes are frequent in the mountains. If a rain front or similar is approaching during the hike, you should turn back in good time.
