    Along the Valserrhein and later crossing the sunny side of the valley, this route offers a scenic overview of the village and its surrounding mountain landscape.

    From the village square, the dam path follows the course of the Valserrhein without major elevation changes. Then, on the route of the local vitaparcours, you pass through the woods and clearings of the idyllic Gäud region, with a view of the roaring Tomülbach as a highlight. After a short section on the main road further downstream, you reach the St. Nikolaus chapel, where the valley floor is left behind. The natural road then steadily ascends to the hamlet of Soladüra and further uphill through a short forest section to Zorts towards Leis. After 1 km, the hamlet of Leis is the last stop before the attractive hiking trail leads back over steep slopes to the innermost village part Valé. Downstream again via the dam path, the village square is reached once more.
