Idyllic winter hiking route from Sumvitg to Rabius.
Details
Description
The hiking route can be started from Sumvitg or from Rabius (village exit west towards Sumvitg).
From here you have a slightly different view of Sumvitg with its imposing St. John the Baptist church (to the north) and to the south towards the Surrein plain, where you can watch the agile cross-country skiers.
The route lies on the sunny slope and partly follows the old cantonal road, which has been used for slow traffic since the construction of the new bridge. You pass through the small hamlet of Runs with its picturesque St. Nicholas chapel. From here there is a beautiful view of the impressive bridge of Val Mulinaun and into Val Sumvitg. The detached house in Val Mulinaun was formerly used as a mill.
The winter hiking routes Sumvitg - Runs - Rabius / Rabius - Surrein and Surrein - Resgia (Cumpadials) can be combined to form the Las Squadras trail.
Please observe the current signage regarding any path closures.
