The "Uf Prätsch" sun track can be completed as an additional loop of the Prätschalp track. This consists of two rounds, the lower and upper part. Both parts are highly recommended for connoisseurs. It indulges all the senses and offers a view of the entire Plessur mountains as far as the Calanda, the Ringelspitze and the Sardona massif. 

Author’s recommendation

Glide through nature and enjoy the panorama far away from the stress of everyday life.

Turn-by-turn directions

Set off on the Prätschalp trail and follow the signs. At kilometre 6 you will find the directions for the additional loop Sonnenloipe "Uf Prätsch". 

Public transport

Public-transport-friendly

The Rhaetian Railway runs from Chur to Arosa and back every hour. The local bus waits for you at Arosa station and takes you in the direction of Prätschli to the cross-country skiing stop. (Bus Schedule)

By road

From Chur, follow the signs to Arosa. At the entrance to the village, turn right at the petrol station and follow the road. After a few hundred metres you will see the cross-country ski trails on the right.

Parking

As there is only a limited number of parking spaces available at the cross-country skiing trails, it is recommended that you park your car in the Ochsenbühl parking garage. The parking garage is right next to a bus stop, from where the local bus will take you in the direction of Prätschli to the start of the trails.
