Senda lumneziana (Vrin - Ilanz)

On this route, you can hike the Val Lumnezia - the Valley of Light - along its entire length. The paths are mostly easy, so you can fully enjoy the beautiful landscapes. Highlights include, among others, the award-winning village of Vrin, the impressive wooden bridge in the Val da Mulin, Luven with its covered village fountain, and finally the small town of Ilanz with its well-preserved historic buildings.

After a recommended village walk in Vrin, the hike begins in the direction of Lumbrein. The first 300 meters go along a lightly traveled cantonal road. In Mons, just after a 90° curve, the hiking trail branches off towards Lumbrein. The narrow path leads through lush spruce forest with rich ground vegetation to the Val Miedra and the alpine pastures above Nussaus. After a short ascent, you reach a panoramic trail with a magnificent view of Lumbrein. The wooden bridge over the Val da Mulin is undoubtedly one of the greatest attractions of hiking tourism in Val Lumnezia. The high trail leads over numerous alpine pastures with carefully maintained hay meadows and pastures.

In Morissen, it is worth stopping to admire the beautiful wooden houses. Afterwards, a wide loop goes downhill along a field path to the hay barns of Scansins. First through forest, then through meadows and marshy terrain, the view opens to the Gruob, where after the Flims rockslide the Ilanzer Lake was once dammed. In the picturesque village of Luven, you can take a look at the opposite mountain range of Piz Signina and Piz Fess. Then continue through the forest with its impressive beeches and mountain maples, past the church Sogn Martin down to Ilanz, the first town on the Rhine.
