Splügen – Splügen

From Splügen (1458 m above sea level) you follow the still young Rhine towards its source. Via Medels and Nufenen you drive through the Rhine Forest to Hinterrhein (1620 m above sea level), the oldest Walser settlement in Graubünden. From Hinterrhein it is not far to the shooting range. During the week, this is the end, but on weekends you can take a dirt road further into the valley in the direction of the Rheinquellhorn.

On the other side of the Rhine, the route goes out of the valley on a dirt road. Via the old Landbrugg you get back to the village of Hinterrhein. If you like it easy to ride, take the bike route no. 6 to Nufenen. The tech-savvy can tackle the meadow path on the other side of the Rhine. From Nufenen, cycle route no. 505 "Rheinwaldroute" leads down the valley. You roll in an idyllic landscape along the Hinterrhein through the valley floor of the Rhine Forest back to Splügen.
