This hike leads through the valley plain of Surrein and later along the Rhine.
Details
Description
The hiking trail starts at the eastern outskirts of Surrein, near the Placi Pign restaurant. You walk along the elongated village of Surrein, partly parallel to the cross-country ski trail "Nordic Surselva." Then you pass through Giachentrina and Reits until you reach the end of the plain. From here, you can walk to the "punt Gonda" bridge, which crosses the Rhine. On the left side of the Rhine, you can continue walking along the river. The cross-country ski trail also runs here, and we ask winter hikers to be considerate of skiers and the trail. The path then leads to a hill and afterwards to Resgia, a standalone house with an extension, which was formerly used as a sawmill. Slightly further you reach the road that leads towards Cumpadials. From there, you can reach Cumpadials in a short time.
The winter hiking trails Sumvitg - Runs - Rabius / Rabius - Surrein and Surrein - Resgia (Cumpadials) can be combined into the Las Squadras route.
Please observe the current signage regarding any path closures.
