Details

Description

The trail branches off to the right from the valley road opposite the postbus stop. Steadily and gently rising, you walk up to the lower Tscheurig huts. From here, continue following the trail for about 300 meters, then turn left at the signpost. The trail leads straight ahead and slightly downhill until you reach the trail of the longer variant. From here, descend to Gassli or Turrahus/postbus stop.

Hidden Gem

The trail can also be ascended in the opposite direction.

Safety Note

This snowshoe tour is marked in the terrain with pink posts but is not tracked. There are some steeper slopes. In case of high avalanche danger, tours in unsecured terrain must generally be avoided.


On WhiteRisk you can learn more about the current avalanche danger.


For relaxed enjoyment on longer tours, we recommend our mountain guides and snowshoe hiking guides of Surselva.

Equipment

Well-functioning snowshoes, poles with winter baskets, good footwear, winter-appropriate clothing. The wind can significantly lower the perceived temperature in winter: do not forget winter gloves, a hat, thermos bottle, etc.


Carrying complete safety equipment, including avalanche transceiver (LVS), is necessary on this route.


Snowshoe equipment can be rented at Gasslihof.
