A varied tour over beautiful trails and with great views.
While there may already be snow at higher altitudes, the paths in the valley are still snow-free. Our interactive snow depth map will help you plan your tour. Here you can see at a glance at www.flims.com/schneesituation where you can expect snow on the paths and trails and where you can still go without getting cold feet.
Author’s recommendation
At the alpine hut at 2054m.a.s.l, the one where the gondola is, drinks are available (self service, take cash with you!). The route passes only a short distance from it. Sticks can make the ascent and descent a little easier. Mountain restaurant Stalla (Alp Nagens) is at the end of the tour.
