Biking Holidays Alpine Bike Graubünden west
Biking: Alpine Bike
The unspoilt nature of the Swiss National Park sets the scene for one of the most beautiful bike tours in the Alps at the beginning. After Tiefencastel, a steep ascent to Turrahus. Wild and wide is the Safiental and the beautiful landscape invites you to linger. But behind the next pass, the sunny terraces of the Surselva await you. On winding trails, you will eventually swing down to Andermatt.
Short single trail through the rugged Albulatobel up to Mistail church, tunnel and uneven rooted trail to Muldain, high over the gorge of the Albula, long ascent to Glaspass, downhill bliss for experienced bikers then on an old mule track to Safien Platz.
Turrahus – Lumbrein
Biking in the tracks of the Walser settlers: easy start through mystic Safiental, steep ascent on the «Polenweg» to the Tomülpass, a biking highlight, great descent to Vals. And to finish, a peaceful pedal in the remote Val Lumnezia.
Lumbrein – Disentis
Long ascent from peaceful Val Lumnezia to Alp Sezner. The descent into Surselva on easy meadow trails is like flying. From Trun an almost effortless pedal in shady meadow woodland along the Vorderrheins with its shingle banks and islands.
The ascent to Uaul Cavorgia is perspiration producing but rewarding in terms of flora and views. Sparser in Val Maighels on the way up to the Oberalppass then truly high-Alpine. The terrific single trail demands top biking techniques. After arriving in Andermatt luggage pick-up and departure.
Characteristic
One of the best trips for bikers in Switzerland. Continuous signage makes it easy to follow the route. Good stamina and technical abilities are required to go on this tour. Short pushing passages every day.
