Description

The imposing castle ruins of Zignau and Schlans face each other on opposite sides of the gentle Surselva slopes, as if resembling a gateway to mark the beginning or end of this breathtaking bike tour. This tour quite simply has everything a biker could wish for.

An Alpine to high-Alpine route with numerous height metres, testing passes, breathtaking views, remote valleys and sensational trails. A gentle, simple meadow trail winds over the Durannapass, the ascent to the Strelapass is steep, rough and challenging and the Kunkelspass is romantic biking bliss. The top highlight is the seemingly unspectacular section between Filisur and Lenzerheide. This cave, meadow, forest, tunnel and reed-bed trail is great fun and will also give less experienced bikers a true biking tingle.

The technically and physically demanding route is recommended for experienced bikers and best travelled in high summer and early autumn.

Sicherheitshinweis

In Davos Klosters there are many alps with livestock farming. Therefore, you can expect to encounter animals everywhere. Please be considerate and drive the terrain at an appropriate speed.

Untervaz

Description

The residential community of Untervaz is located on the left side of the Graubünden Rhine Valley and nestles harmoniously in the corner of the Val Cosenz, at the foot of the Calanda. The Haldensteiner Calanda (2806 m above sea level) forms the highest point of the municipality. Three castle ruins belong to Untervaz, all of which were left to decay by their last owners: 2 km southeast of the village lies the ruins of Neuburg on a rocky head above the Rhine. To the west of the village, in a narrow and damp crevice in the Valcosenz lies the ruins of Rappenstein Castle from the 13th century. Today, only remnants of the third Friewis Castle and the bath that operated there can be seen. The water of two springs had healing properties.

Katholische Kirche St.Laurentius
First mentioned around 800; rebuilt 1848; renovated: 1913, 1971

Description

Our gaze is magically drawn to the shingle-roofed double onion dome, pans across the octagonal tower top and descends to the no less harmonious nave. The wide hall-like nave and the polygonal choir give the church its remarkable size. Some of the statues inside date from the former High Ages, around 1550.
