Hike on the sunny side of Flims with many places to stop for refreshments. It's not for nothing that our path passes the summer culinary trail, where you will find a mountain restaurant for every course.

Starting point fo this winter hike is Flims valley station, from where you will reach Foppa mountain station by chairlift.
Shortly below the mountain railways, we take the slightly ascending trail through the forest Stenna (Uaul Stenna) to the signpost 122. Once arrived there, we stay left and walk past forest as well as clear sections. After about 2 km you will pass restaurant Runcahöhe. With its sundeck, it offers a great opportunity for a break. After further 2 km you will reach the village border and you end your hike in Flims Waldhaus.
