Bike & (snowshoe) hike from Savognin to Piz Mez (2718 m)
This tour was a great combination of mountain biking, hiking, and snowshoe hiking. It was also a tour going from summer to winter and back again! I started off with my mountain bike in Savognin where the chairlift valley station is located. Going uphill, I partially biked, and partially walked the bike. Unfortunately, I took...

Vättnerchopf (2618 m) and Scadellagrat (2541 m)
Start of the hike in Vättis at 06:30 in the morning. I followed the white-red-white marked trail up to Alp Ladils (this destination is not indicated, but Muntaluna is). It paid off being so early - after only 10-15 min hiking I saw two red deer in the forest! Just before Alp Ladils, I took a left on an unmarked trail, and later I...

Chrachenhorn (2891 m) - hike from Sertig
Start of the hike around 9 o'clock in Sertig. I followed the white-red-white marked trail in direction Fanezfurgga. The Ducan valley is really scenic, and the weather was picture perfect with blue skies and not a single cloud! I spotted a few marmots on the way. From Fanezfurgga, I hiked up along the Chrachenhorn NE ridge,...

Muchetta (2622 m) - bike & hike from Filisur
Muchetta is a mountain east of and above the village Filisur. There is a white-red-white marked trail all the way from Filisur up to the summit, but this ascent implies a hefty 1600 m elevation gain. To at least make the descent a bit easier on the knees, I brought my mountain bike along. I mostly walked the bike uphill on the...

This was a mixed hike and snowshoe hike. Start in Mathon at 8:30 AM. Lots of spring flowers on the way up to Dros. But above elevation 2100 m it is all snow covered, so that is where I got to use the snowshoes. I generally followed the ski route up to Parpeinahorn, and I did not meet any other hikers above Dros. The weather was...
