This tour takes you from Chur through the wine regions of the Rhine valley and the Bündner Herrschaft. Enjoy the beautiful scenery and villages in this region. The journey back to Chur is along the well known bicycling route along the Rhine river.

First you cycle through the historic Old town, cross the Plessur river and ride out of the city on a marked cycling path. Soon you get into the forest. At point 729 you can either take a left and ascent to Schönegg. On top you will enjoy gorgeous views into the surrounding mountain scenery (Calanda, Ringelspitz, Rhätikon, mountains around Flims) and the Chur Rhine valley.

For the descent cross the small alp and follow the narrow and technical single track on the right side. Two times you will cross the street and then follow it for a short track, befor finally you will ride a trail with lots of flow back to the city.

This route takes you through the hills of the Bündner Herrschaft, past huge vineyards and picturesque Torkeln, up to the St. Luzisteig. At 713 metres above sea level, the top of the pass is reached.  A rapid descent leads further down into Liechtenstein. From there it goes back on the Rhine dam in the direction of Chur. Flat and without car traffic, the Rhine dam invites you to really push your pedals. The Rhine dam ends at Bad Ragaz and the route leads along country roads via Bad Ragaz back to Landquart. From there, take  the same route back to Chur as you came. 

This leisurely circular hike leads along wide natural paths along the Calanda massif. The hike starts from the Obere Au and leads along the Rhine to Haldenstein, where the path leads up to the Panorama Trail. Optionally, the tour can also be started from Haldenstein. 

 
Closure of the finish slope Arabüehl: Please note that the section of the Panorama Trail, which runs through the Waffenplatz finish slope (Calanda finish slope), is only open from Friday, 5 p.m. to Monday, 7 a.m. General winter closure from mid-November to mid-April. More information at https://www.vtg.admin.ch/de/die-schweizer-armee/waffen-schiessplaetze/waffenplatz-chur.html 

This hike starts at the bus stop Obere Au P+R, where there are also parking facilities. From here the path leads to the Rhine. From here, the path runs along the banks of the Rhine to the Pardisla Bridge. This bridge is crossed and the path continues to Oldiswald, where the path turns left. Follow this path to the village entrance Haldenstein, where the höhenweg begins. 

Here the path winds gently up the hill. Continue over pastures and through forest, along the Calanda massif. On the way, there are always wonderful viewpoints of Chur and the surrounding mountains. Various benches invite you to take a break and enjoy the panorama. 

Soon you have reached the military target slope Arabüehl above Chur. As soon as you have traversed it, you will continue through a tunnel on a paved road. This leads down, in the direction of Felsberg. At the bottom of unter Neugüter Strasse, the path leads to the left, in the direction of the banks of the Rhine. Along the Rhine it goes back to the starting point in the Upper Au. Alternatively, you can turn right on Unter Neugüter Strasse and walk to Felsberg and end the tour there.

The Fürstenwald is a recreational area near Chur. It offers a diverse and popular route network for joggers and nordic walkers.

The start is in Chur on the Quaderwiese, from there it leads through the old town on the road Chur-Arosa to sand. Over a gravel road it continues to Passugg. In Passugg the route leads around the building of the beverage manufacturer Passugger and leaves the road again on a dirt road. From Passugg the route follows the Polenweg to Churwalden. In Churwalden the route first goes through the village and then towards Büel, Foppa. From Foppa it goes down via Mittelberg to Parpan. From there the route leads over the Parpanerhöhe to Valbella. From Canols it continues once around the Heidsee to Lenzerheide.

From Waldhausstall at Fürstenwald follow the forest road to Mittenberg at 1'100 meters. The track is signposted and the venue of the twice-yearly Mittenberg race. For the descent back there are different variants. Either follow the forest road back to Waldhausstall or one of the various trails back to the valley.

From Chur, this varied route first leads along the Plessur river to Meiersboden. There the beautiful ascent begins, which first leads to Passugg. After a short stretch on the road follows the further ascent to Churwalden on the very worthwhile "Polenweg", which was extended by Poles from 1940-44 and thus got its name. In Churwalden then follows the actual ascent on the "Jochwäg", at the beginning on a mountain road, later on forest roads through forests and over beautiful alps ever higher up to the actual summit destination - the Churer Joch. Magnificent alpine flora and views of the mountain world of Lenzerheide characterize the beautiful ascent. For the rewarding deep view down to the Alpine City of Chur and the mighty Calanda massif behind it, it is worth making the short climb to the highest point and all the way to the front.

Now follows a long descent on the other side of the Joch. The landscape and view here is no less attractive than on the other side, because now you look directly into the Schanfigg valley with its picturesque Walser villages and mountain landscapes. After the short counter-ascension, the mighty Arosa Weisshorn also shows itself from the rear side at the Hühnerköpfe mountain restaurant. The further descent follows the mountain road, past the beautiful Furgglis mountain restaurant to the Walser village of Tschiertschen. Whether in one of the mountain restaurants or in Tschiertschen itself in the Hotel/Restaurant Alpina on the large panorama terrace, a stopover is definitely worthwhile. Finally, there is the descent on the little-used mountain road to Passugg and from there back on the ascent route 255 via Meiersboden back to Chur.

From the beautiful Alpine City of Chur, this varied route first leads along the Plessur river to Meiersboden. There begins the beautiful climb, which first leads to Passugg. The small village above Chur is known throughout Switzerland for the "Passugger" mineral water, which springs here from the legendary Theophil spring in the rough and wild Rabiosa gorge. The gorge is not on the route, but a short detour to the drinking hall is definitely worthwhile and recommended, because there the unruly Rabiosa gorge unfolds in its full glory. After a short stretch on the road follows the further ascent to Churwalden on the very worthwhile "Polenweg", which was extended by Polish people from 1940-44 and thus got its name.

Among other things, Churwalden is known for its adventure mountain Pradaschier and the longest toboggan run in Switzerland. A detour to the valley station, where a ticket can be purchased for the chairlift and a descent on the toboggan run is tempting (there is also a splendid mountain restaurant at the top). From Churwalden finally follows an ascent on a forest path and then a descent and traverse to the mountain road that leads to Brambrüesch. On the beautiful plateau you can not only refuel culinary, at the Brambus Center there is also a charging station for e-bikes and in the immediate vicinity there is also a moor course to see.

Finally, there is the enjoyable and panoramic descent from Brambrüesch to Chur, for the most part on forest paths. If you are technically skilled and have a full-suspension bike with you, you can also whiz down into the valley on the blue signaled freeride route in the Alpenbikepark Chur (the red and black routes are more recommended for thoroughbred downhillers). Back in Chur, it's worth taking a detour to the picturesque and car-free old town.
