Domleschg

From the post bus stop on the edge of Tomils, we follow the road upwards very briefly. Already after the tight curve we turn right into a natural path and soon reach Dusch with its old houses, passing through rural seclusion. A comfortable path circles a wooded hill. On a tree, a nostalgic signpost points right to the Romanesque Magdalene chapel. It lies in a clearing in a larch grove. The narrow shortcut is quite steep. Therefore, we go back the short beautiful stretch, cross through Dusch, and continue past the stately Hof Buol built in 1664 towards Paspels. Already at the first next house on the right side of the road, we turn left and cross a meadow. The following forest area is also of gentle silence. In a clearing, a pasture well murmurs and a bench awaits.

In Mulegns, the painter and sculptor Robert Indermaur lived and worked. Some of his works are displayed outdoors. They please us with their restrained, not always entirely harmless humor. Indermaur is, for example, the creator of the unforgettable group of figures at Thusis station, a large painting at the Chur cantonal school, and many, many other works. A wide path now descends through meadowland towards Almens. The whole upper Domleschg lies at our feet. The Piz Beverin unfolds its beauty. Strengthened by a snack at the Landhus restaurant in Almens, we walk through the romantic hedge path to Scharans.

Another catering tip on the route Tomils - Dusch - Sontga Magdalena - Mulegns - Almens – Scharans is the restaurant of the Scalottas Foundation. This is open 365 days a year from 08:00 – 17:00 with a view of the Piz Beverin and the Heinzenberg.
