From Laax Murschetg you go up the Planetenweg to Falera, where you can enjoy the view of the Surselva during a short detour to Parc la Mutta. Through the narrow alleys of Falera you reach a well-built alpine road up towards Crap Sogn Gion. Passing mountain farms, Maiensäss huts and lush mountain meadows, you reach a wide and well signposted natural road up to 1800 meters. Once the last 800 meters of altitude have been climbed, the route branches off over a small bridge onto the natural and rooty trail. A stop at the alpine dairy for cheese tasting is considered an insider tip, the alpine farmers of the Dadens alp spoil hungry guests with local specialties, freshly baked cakes and delicious dishes. From now on it's downhill, on the easy single trail descent to Falera you can enjoy a beautiful view of the Signina group and the famous Rhine Gorge. From Falera you return to Laax Murschetg on the high trail, where you can finish the tour with a coffee or a cool drink.

The tour is suitable for beginners and advanced riders, with or without an e-bike. Safe riding on easy trails is a prerequisite, especially in the upper part. Along the route, the e-bike can be charged at one of the numerous e-bike charging stations in the region.
