By road

Once you arrive in Chur, follow the sign posts Arosa. At the village entrance, opposite the petrol station, turn right towards the golf course.

Parking spaces at the golf course (right next to the Lucky Stone Trail) are limited. It is highly recommended to park at the Ochsenbühl car park and to take the local bus to the golf course. Further information can be found here.

Sehr schöner, kleiner Trail, kann man gut mit einem Besuch auf der Prätsch-Alp verbinden. Selbst bei Regen schön zu laufen.
