Description
This trail begins on the scenic mountain Curnius. Curnius is at 1644 meters above sea level and faces the sun. This route goes only downhill in a positive sense. It leads through forest passages and open alpine meadows to the historic village of Falera. Falera has been inhabited for over 3000 years and was at that time an important solar cult site. The megalithic complex – one of the largest of its kind in Switzerland – still serves as proof today.
On the snowshoe route, you have a breathtaking view over the Val Lumnezia and the Grisons mountains. Facing the sun, you are right in the middle of the sun terrace. Once in Falera, there are various possibilities to warm up and stop for a bite.
