Best Time of Year
Description
At the beginning, the partly scenic hike leads down to the valley floor at Rueun. Here you also pass by the entrance to the Minas da Gulatsch. A detour to the former mining sites is definitely worthwhile, as the path is also equipped with child-friendly stations. Further on to Ilanz leads a well-developed, mostly flat natural road. In Rueun stands the oldest wooden bridge in the canton of Graubünden – it is also one of the oldest in Europe. Those who want to visit it must make a detour to the train station in Rueun. In Rueun, the path leads along the road into the village, here turn into Via Principala (turn right towards Schnaus). At the church in the village of Rueun, the circular route goes left (through the houses). Note that the signpost is somewhat hidden. After Rueun, you have the option to hike part of the route on the historical “Via Suworow” or make a small detour through the village of Schnaus. Shortly before Schnaus and the historical site of the Giger brothers, there is a forest educational trail. It is worth planning a little extra time for this and visiting the Gigerseeli as well as the old waterwheel.
