Description

But not only the hearts of geologists beat higher, even hikers get their money's worth. A picture-pretty and almost untouched mountain landscape awaits you on this alpine hiking tour. The many small lakes and the impressive peaks of the Sardona region will enchant you.

Hidden Gem

The descent follows the fascinating waterway Trutg dil Flem.

Safety Note

In uncertain weather conditions, the tour should not be started. Weather reversals in the mountains are common.

Equipment

Good hiking boots with good profile or trekking shoes, weatherproof clothing

Directions

By cable car up to the Tschinglen Alp. Here begins the climb to Segnespass - always the Tschingelhörner and the Martinsloch in mind. On descent, after the alluvial and moorland landscape of Segnasboden, the landscape is increasingly marked by the Flims landslide. Optionally, the tour can be shortened with the FlemXpress
