Description
After a short warm-up in the village of Grüsch, it immediately gets serious: In less than a kilometer, around 300 vertical meters have to be climbed in countless switchbacks. After that, it becomes much flatter. After a short stretch on a gravel road, you can turn onto a wonderfully runnable path. This leads with constant ups and downs to the Crupspitz. Upon arrival, you enjoy a great view of the front Prättigau. A short, steep descent follows to the Furgga, where the trail reaches the Prättigau ridge trail. Follow it to the picturesque Seewis. Here this route leaves the well-known long-distance trail to return past the Solavers castle ruins to Grüsch.
