After starting at Alexanderplatz in the heart of Chur, the Uphill Trail UFFA leads through the picturesque old town of the cantonal capital, through Obergasse and the Obertor up to Rosenhügel. There the route changes from asphalt to forest roads and varied (single) trails, which lead up to the first viewpoint at Juchs. Then comes a steep and challenging ascent to the highest point at Spundisköpf Lake, from there on a varied trail over the Spundisköpfe to the mountain station and the finish at the mountain restaurant.
