Piz Val Lunga (3077 m) is a peak which requires quite a long ascent/descent when you start from Tinizong or Savognin. Start of the hike just above the village of Tinizong at elevation 1320 m. I followed the alp road in direction Alp d'Err, mostly walking the bike. The road is paved up to Tgant Pensa. In Val d'Err I spotted...

Piz Turba is a mountain at the border between the regions Avers, Bergell, and Oberhalbstein. Start of the hike at 8:20 in Bivio. The weather was perfect with blue skies! I brought my mountain bike along. Going uphill, I partially biked, and partially walked the bike. The road to the Septimer pass is paved for 1.5 km, the rest...

Piz Piot (3052 m) and Piz Mäder (3000 m) are two mountain peaks which are quite far south of Bivio, but a day trip from Bivio is manageable when doing a bike & hike. There were already about 20 tour reports for Piz Piot, but this is the first one which does not start from Juf in Avers. Start of the hike at 8:30 in Bivio....

This hike covers the four peaks Stelli (2052 m), Brotjoggli (2115 m), Berger Calanda (2270 m), and last but not least Rossfallenspitz (2632 m). Start of the tour at 7:30 in the morning from St. Margrethenberg. First with the mountain bike on the paved road to Fürggli (P.1333 in the online maps). Then on the unpaved forest road...

Chirchli (2769 m) is a mountain peak which is probably unknown to most. But I enjoy hiking to peaks that are rather unknown, and where rarely anyone would go. This time it was even more extreme, because Chirchli is kind of far away from any starting point. As a bike & hike from Monbiel it is easily manageable as a day trip...

Mattjisch Horn (2460 m) has been described here on hikr.org a number of times already, but I think this is the first time as a bike & hike report. Start of the tour in Langwies shortly before 9:00 AM. I followed the forest road from Langwies all the way up to P.2079 (Seta), mostly walking the bike. The first 2.5 km of this...

This tour to Chrüz (2195 m) was a bike & hike with start and end in Schiers. Start of the tour at 8:30 AM in Schiers at the train station. I followed the road up to Stelserberg, partially biking and partially walking the bike (10 km distance, 1000 m elevation gain, average slope 10%). Near Stelsersee I parked my bike, and...

Piz Arlos (2697 m) is a mountain peak just south of Savognin. So far it had only two hikr reports, so it's not that popular I suppose. But according to the summit book, it had actually been visited five times this summer. The peak P.2863, which is nearly 2 km further south, did not have any entries in the summit book for this...

Piz Forcellina (2938 m) is a mountain peak close to the Septimer pass. It is probably not visited very often, especially when compared to the neighboring peak Piz Turba. Start of the hike shortly after 9:00 in Bivio. I brought my mountain bike along. Going uphill, I partially biked, and partially walked the bike. The road to...

Cassonsgrat/Fil de Cassons is the highest area of Crap da Flem aka Flimserstein. The aerial cablecar to Cassons stopped operating a few years back, so now you either have to hike from Naraus or Bargis to get up there. I started off with the mountain bike around 10:15 AM in Flims, heading up towards Fidaz and then Bargis. At the...

For a long time I had planned to do a bike & hike from Laax to Bündner Vorab and Glarner Vorab, but due to other projects, it did not happen until today. When I last week saw photos from a friend's bike tour in the area, it again reminded me of my dormant plan. I started off around 7:30 AM from Laax. At the start, the...

Escursione Bike & Hike in alta Val Calanca, una valle appartata, rimasta isolata per parecchio tempo dai traffici nord-sud. La sua storia è simile a quella di molte comunità montane, caratterizzate dal nomadismo stagionale e dalla migrazione temporanea. Ecco un estratto da “Quaderni Grigioni Italiano” risalente al...

Gita Bike & Hike sul versante orografico sinistro della Valle Calanca, nel comune di Calanca, costituito nel 2015 grazie alla fusione di Arvigo, Braggio, Cauco e Selma. Malgrado la giornata di piena estate sia serena e calda (isoterma di 0°C alle nove a 4000 m) su questo versante il sole sorge tardi. Suggerisco quindi...

On the way to Engadin, I stopped in Bivio and did a bike & hike to Sur al Cant (2716 m). This mountain is a little bit further south than the Bivio ski area. It was blue skies all day, but quite windy. The view from Sur al Cant was great, even if the summit is not as high as many surrounding mountains. Route: By bike, from...

Bike & hike from Innerferrera via Cresta to Cucalner/Guggernüll. Start of the bike ride shortly before 9 AM in Innerferrera. For the bike ride up to Cresta, I followed the main road, but there was not much traffic. The distance is approx. 10 km, with nearly 500 m elevation gain. The road goes through several tunnels, so your...

Parpeinahorn (2602 m), Einshorn (2457 m), Zwölfihorn (2292 m), and Rappakopf (2196 m) - those were the peaks I covered today. But in the opposite order; Parpeinahorn was the last one. Start of the tour in Zillis at 7:30 AM. I rode my mountain bike along the main road up to Lohn (distance: 9 km, elevation gain: 650 m). There I...

Das Glaserhorn (3127 m) ist ist ein relativ unbekannter Gipfel nordwestlich vom Ringelspitz. Der Aufstieg ist lang, steinig und anstrengend, aber die Aussicht vom Gipfel ist grandios. Vor einem Jahr hat Rambo96 ein Gipfelbuch deponiert, vielen Dank dafür! Mit meinem heutigen Eintrag sind es jetzt insgesamt vier Einträge in...

Il toponimo Burasca, dal dialetto Bürasca, evoca tempeste con una travolgente concomitanza di vento e pioggia. Non è il caso odierno: calma di vento e temperatura estiva mi accompagnano nel tentativo di raggiungere la cima mesolcinese, che soprattutto in inverno suscita in me ammirazione e nel contempo timore...

Escursione nella bella Val Schons / Schams nel territorio del Parco Naturale Beverin. L’e-mtb mi permette di raggiungere in un’ora e mezza l’Alp Neaza, un ideale punto di partenza per l’attacco finale al Piz Curvér. Questa mattina il Pizzo Corvo ha le ali imbiancate. Inizio dell’escursione: ore 8:15...

Piz Bleis Marscha (3128 m) wird eher von Naz oder Preda angesteuert, denn so sind es mindestens 400 Hm weniger als von Tinizong, und das Val Mulix ist landschaftlich sehr schön. Heute habe ich aber den Aufstieg als Bike & Hike ab Tinizong gemacht, da ich in Savognin stationiert war. Es war wirklich perfektes Spätsommer...
