Selected alternatives for you

The more than 500 meters of elevation gain stretch comfortably over asphalt and fine gravel – but the closer you get to the goal, the more your calves burn. Easy start, spicy finish!

Warning: Hikers are also on this trail. Show style and follow the trail rules. Ride fair.

You have to earn the descent – and the climb to Churer Joch definitely has it in it! Right at the start, it goes steep, on Oberberg you can catch your breath briefly before the trail kicks up again. But hey: At the top awaits a view that will take your breath away – promised!
