The first kilometer of the Panorama Trail OBA leads on an asphalt road past the Edelweisshütte to the parking lot, from where it goes over a panoramic path to the mountain station Pradaschier. Via the Alp Pradaschier the trail leads back to the Grüenenbüel, where the ascent leads to the high plateau of the Term Bel. This is the historically significant Dreibündenstein, the highest point of the route, reached, which offers a magnificent view over the whole of Central Grisons. On a varied trail, it goes down to the ski lodge Term Bel and from there on the Panoramaweg, past the Lady Patricia memorial stone, with a fascinating view of Domat Ems and Chur. The last section corresponds to the route of the KURZA.

After the cableway ascent from Chur to Brambrüesch, a short and pleasant ascent over the Malixeralp to Lake Spundis follows. There you take the exit via Juchs to Chur. And it's got it in it! At the beginning a flowing trail leads across the meadows, which inspires jumps of joy. Later it becomes steeper and more demanding until you have crossed the ravine and descend over a meadow to Alp Juchs. After following the alp road for a short while, a hiking trail soon branches off to the left again. Now begins a technical, partially exposed single trail, traversed by demanding (but with some practice rideable - please avoid abbreviations) hairpin bends. The trail crosses the road several times until one follows the alp road a bit further down. And then after a bend another trail branches off to the right. Here begins a flow firework, the trail leads relatively flat in several sections up to the Rosenhügel above Chur. On this last section, especially before the curves, drive with foresight and caution, as hikers or bikers might also come across. From Rosenhügel one follows the road and behind the Welschdörfli through back to the valley station of the Chur cableways.

The high plateau Brambrüesch can be reached comfortably with the cableways from the city of Chur. The hike first leads straight on to the mountain restaurant and then up to the Malixeralp on the right side of the ski lift and on to Spundis, where a fantastic panorama opens up towards the region of the Surselva. Via Hühnerköpfe (top station ski lift) the trail continues upwards through a varied and beautiful alpine flora. At Furggabüel you finally reach the highest point and are rewarded with an impressive all-round panorama. At this point, a two-part panorama board provides information about the surrounding mountain world and also the clearly visible mountain ranges of the Tectonic Arena Sardona (UNESCO World Heritage). Just a short walk and you reach the Dreibündenstein, marked by a clearly visible boundary stone, where you can also sign the summit book. With a magnificent view you continue your hike towards Pradaschier. After a relatively steep descent, turn right. Now it goes more gently downhill to Galtialp and one crosses on a beautiful hiking trail over Trittwald back towards Brambrüesch. On the way, a detour to the idyllic Edelweisshütte, where you can eat. Back in Brambrüesch, there are finally three mountain restaurants with sun terraces available, so that you can finish this wonderful circular hike with pleasure before taking the cableways back to Chur.

This stage focuses on the fascination of the Flims rock slide. Gain an impression of its dimension from the new vantage platform at Conn. Gold was mined at Calanda, between Tamins and Felsberg, in the 19th century.

From Bad Ragaz, the pass route, which was already used by the Romans, leads steadily uphill to the spa town of Valens. There you drive rather flat over the almost 100 meter high bridge further down to Vasön and the Mapragg reservoir. Before the dam, turn right and drive along the lakeshore before continuing on the main road at the end of the lake.

Through a wild valley basin with almost vertical mountain flanks rising on both sides, we continue to Vättis. The final ascent to the pass now runs away from traffic in an untouched, grandiose landscape. Shortly after the Eggwald mountain restaurant, you leave the canton of St.Gallen and you are now on Graubünden soil before you reach the top of the pass.

At the transition from the Tamina Valley to the Rhine Valley, the great differences on both sides of the watershed are astonishing. The descent to Tamins is a real treat with a view of the confluence of the Anterior and Rear Rhine.
