Description

The route starts in Brigels at Restaurant Tödi. From the parking lot, it goes further up to Crest Tschuppina. Here you have a great panoramic view over the whole village and the Brigels Horns.

After a short "ridge walk," it continues at the forest entrance parallel to the golf course towards the viewpoint "Flanz." Once you have left the golf course behind, you reach a second forest section. From the forest entrance of the hiking signpost in the direction of "Flanz" to the viewpoint, follow the path. Here, in "Flanz," also called Adlerstein, it is worth taking a break to enjoy the unique view towards Ilanz. Then head back to the fork towards Waltensburg.

Follow the connecting road Waltensburg-Brigels along the street to the forest edge. Once there, turn sharply left and follow the hiking signpost towards Brigels.

You can now follow this path back to Brigels.

Hidden Gem

Dining options:
- Restaurant Tödi, Brigels, and various other restaurants throughout the village.

Safety Note

The trail is not marked.

This snowshoe route has no dangerous avalanche-prone sections. However, be sure to check the weather forecast and start only under good conditions.

Fancy longer routes? For carefree enjoyment, we recommend our mountain guides and snowshoe hiking leaders of the Surselva.

For us humans, winter is a wonderful time! Deeply snow-covered landscapes, clear, pure air, and in the evening after the snowshoe tour, a warm, cozy home awaits. For our wildlife, such as deer, red deer, and chamois, winter is a harsh time! Any disturbance by us humans, any flight, becomes a torment for these animals and depletes their reserves. Stay on the published route! This protects the wildlife and quiet zones.
