Photo: Dagmar Surink, Flims Laax

A visit to the observation deck "Il Spir" you must not miss. From this you can enjoy a beautiful 180 ° view over the Rhine Gorge.

The viewing platform Il Spir (Romansh for: the swift) is located just a few minutes from Conn. The platform was designed by Chur architect Corinna Menn and inaugurated in September 2006. It offers a unique 180 degree view over the Little Swiss Canyon, the Ruinaulta gorge. From Flims Waldhaus you can reach the viewing platform via hiking trails through the Flims forest in about one hour.
