Details
Description
The hike to the Biferten hut at the foot of the Muot da Rubi (Kistenstoeckli) is a journey through changing landscapes - steep ascents and quiet resting sections alternate and create a natural rhythm.
Once at the top, a panorama opens that makes you forget all efforts: The view stretches over Brigels and the mountain ridges of Obersaxen. Later, a deep view follows at Rubi Sura into the wild romantic Val Frisal. Finally, you reach the spectacularly situated Biferten hut – a place of peace and wonder. With a bit of luck you can see the ibex colony here in its natural environment.
The ascent begins either comfortably with the four-seater chairlift from Brigels to Crest Falla and then on foot via Alp Quader – or traditionally on foot from the old village part of Brigels (Cuort), along the alpine path towards Alp Quader.
