Pure family fun! The cosy forest trail from Arosa to Langwies offers everything a family could wish for: beautiful nature, many resting places and an exciting adventure trail which can be ideally integrated into a leisurely bike tour. Return to Arosa on the Rhaetian Railway.

In Arosa, mountain bikes for the whole family can be hired from various sports shops. The tour starts directly at the Obersee and usually winds along forest paths over the Untersee to the reservoir and then to Litzirüti. After the Untersee the adventure trail Mensch.Wald.Tier starts, which the families should definitely integrate into the tour. The whole family can learn a lot. On the way there are also always barbecue places to enjoy the picnic. From Litzirüti to Langwies the path continues on a wide frost path. The last highlight awaits the family below the Langwies viaduct. At the Plessur there is a beautifully idyllic barbecue area which gives the kids enough room to let off steam. To make sure everyone is tired in the evening, the bikes have to be pushed over a short distance to the Langwies railway station. Arriving at the station, the family comfortably takes their bikes on the Rhaetian Railway, which takes them back to Arosa. Transport is free with the All Inclusive Card. Only the bike transport has to be solved on site.
