Davos/Clavadel - Sertig Dörfli

From Clavadel we follow the road for a while, and then we turn off for Sertig Dörfli (“Little Village of Sertig”) as indicated by a signpost. As far as Boden farm we walk along a wide path. From Boden onwards, we continue on a lovely path along the right side of the Sertig Valley. In some places the path goes up the mountainside, but it is comfortable and pleasant to walk. At times we hike through larch and pine woods. Again and again we have a beautiful view down through the valley to the striking mountain peaks that close off the back of the valley: Mittagshorn, Plattenflue and Hoch Ducan.

At the end of the woodlands, at a place called die Eggen, we go onto wide, slightly sloping pasture-land. Further on, on level ground, is the little Alpine village of Sertig. The simple white village church with its pointed spire is a notable feature. In the village, we can stop for refreshment at the “Bergführer” restaurant. We can also keep on hiking on the level ground till we reach the “Kurhaus”, and stop there for a snack. A further jaunt to the waterfall at the back of the valley is also worthwhile. In the Spring, you will see a sea of white crocus blooming in the meadow land around the village. In early summer we find, further on, islands of gentian, bird's-eye primrose and other Alpine flowers. It takes about half an hour to get from Sertig to the Waterfall.
