Details

Description

At the beginning of the hike, the path winds through a reforestation with pines. This place is especially an important retreat area for many animals in winter. Shortly afterwards, the compensation basin of the Zervreila power plants dominates the valley floor, before you reach the wild Rabiusa river and follow it upstream. The path reaches the alpine road, which leads to Alp Piggamad and further to Z'hinderscht. Here you feel like you are in an amphitheater. It is not far from here to the already visible and audible waterfall. On the bridge below the waterfall, the power of the falling water is clearly perceptible.


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


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