    The hike from Bargis to Cassons is an impressive mountain route with breathtaking views of the Tectonic Arena Sardona, a UNESCO World Natural Heritage site. The starting point is Bargis at 1,550 m above sea level, which is easily accessible by bus from Flims.

    The path leads through the idyllic high valley of Bargis and passes through varied alpine landscapes with blooming mountain meadows and striking limestone rocks. The trail steadily ascends past the Alp Rusna and continues up to the Fuorcla Raschaglius at around 2,600 meters. From there it goes on to the Cassons ridge at about 2,675 m above sea level, where a spectacular view of the Segnesboden and the famous Martinsloch opens up. Shortly afterwards you reach Cassons (mountain station of the FlemX), from where you can conveniently take the gondola back to Flims.

    Surefootedness and good physical condition are required.

    If you have enough energy left, take the approx. 45 minutes hike down to the Segnes hut instead, where you can enjoy good food and a fresh beverage on the sun terrasse with great views. The FlemX will take you down to the valley from there.

    Author’s recommendation

    Get out at Segnes on your way down or walk the short bit down to there: Great homemade sweets in the Segnes hut.
