Description

At the beginning of the hike, the path winds through a reforestation with foresters. This place is an important retreat for many animals, especially in winter. The compensation basin of the Zervreila power plants dominates the valley floor shortly afterwards, before reaching the wild Rabiusa River and following it upstream. The trail reaches the alpine road, which leads to Alp Piggamad and on to Z'hinderscht. Here you feel like in an amphitheater. It is not far from here, to the already visible and audible waterfall. On the bridge at the bottom of the waterfall, the power of the falling water is clearly noticeable.

On the way back, from Alp Piggamad, follow the alpine road to the compensation basin to get back along the hiking trail to Thalkirch Turrahus.

Along the trail you will find a variety of different plants and flowers.
