An diesem Astronomischen Datum sind wohl einige unterwegs gewesen den Blutmond/Mondfinsternis zu sehen. Auch wir waren am Biwakieren in der Fläche beim Guscha oberhalb Flums. Mit noch etwas müden Beinen, aber dank dem e-Bike hoch bis zur Alp Mädems Hintersäss. Ab da zu Fuss zum Guscha. Das Wetter warm und noch ohne Wind. Eine...

This hike covers the four peaks Stelli (2052 m), Brotjoggli (2115 m), Berger Calanda (2270 m), and last but not least Rossfallenspitz (2632 m). Start of the tour at 7:30 in the morning from St. Margrethenberg. First with the mountain bike on the paved road to Fürggli (P.1333 in the online maps). Then on the unpaved forest road...

Piz Piot (3052 m) and Piz Mäder (3000 m) are two mountain peaks which are quite far south of Bivio, but a day trip from Bivio is manageable when doing a bike & hike. There were already about 20 tour reports for Piz Piot, but this is the first one which does not start from Juf in Avers. Start of the hike at 8:30 in Bivio....

Piz Turba is a mountain at the border between the regions Avers, Bergell, and Oberhalbstein. Start of the hike at 8:20 in Bivio. The weather was perfect with blue skies! I brought my mountain bike along. Going uphill, I partially biked, and partially walked the bike. The road to the Septimer pass is paved for 1.5 km, the rest...

Piz Spegnas (2620 m) is a rather unknown peak approx. 2 km NE of Piz Arblatsch. So far there was only one report here on hikr.org about Piz Spegnas, and it's already six years old! I chose to start at P.1427 at the main road between Rona and Mulegns. It is possible to park right where the unpaved forest road up to Nascharegnas...

Piz Val Lunga (3077 m) is a peak which requires quite a long ascent/descent when you start from Tinizong or Savognin. Start of the hike just above the village of Tinizong at elevation 1320 m. I followed the alp road in direction Alp d'Err, mostly walking the bike. The road is paved up to Tgant Pensa. In Val d'Err I spotted...

Come si sa l’appetito viene mangiando recita un noto adagio. Quasi in ossequio a questo ho deciso di continuare la serie delle tappe della Via Francisca percorrendone tre in un colpo solo anche perché mi erano ben note avendole già seguite in altri momenti. Convoco la mia amica Chiara che ben felice risponde alla chiamata....

Premetto che la maggior parte di questa tappa l’ho percorsa assieme alla precedente Tappa 1 del 14/02/2018 ma un problema occorsomi mi costrinse ad interromperla ed a rimandarne il completamento. Eccomi dunque qui a quasi un mese di distanza per affrontare l’ultima parte: la salita al Santuario di Santa Maria del Monte per...

Muchetta is a mountain east of and above the village Filisur. There is a white-red-white marked trail all the way from Filisur up to the summit, but this ascent implies a hefty 1600 m elevation gain. To at least make the descent a bit easier on the knees, I brought my mountain bike along. I mostly walked the bike uphill on the...

Tgapeala Cotschna is a peak above the village called Alvaneu Dorf. Until now it had only been been described twice here on hikr.org, and in both cases it was a ski tour. I started my hike just above the village Alvaneu Dorf at elevation 1250 m. There is a small parking lot at the end of the road. To drive further up, a special...

Bei uns in der Ostschweiz hatte es doch recht heftig geschneit, darum sind zurzeit süd-exponierte Hänge die bessere Wahl. Für mich eine Gelegenheit, die Passagen rund um Güntelchamm und Hatzgenstock einmal genauer anzuschauen. Erst ging es per Bike von Engi-Dorf bis zur Verzweigung der Wege auf rund 1245 m. Bis Chummenberg...

Ci provo una prima volta, ma, al Boffalora, mi arrendo ad un formidabile temporale, che la tira in lungo, costringendomi ad una birra, poi doppiata all'Alpe di Colonno nell' attesa che una pioggia tignosa sgomberi il campo. Ci provo una seconda volta, quindici giorni più tardi. Questa volta arrivo al Venini in compagnia di...

Kurzer Ausflug zur Pizolhütte mit Bike. Danach im Laufschritt hoch zum Girenspitz den es wohl in jedem Kanton mindestens 1x gibt. Hoch ging ich via Wildseehornsattel immer über die grossen Steine. So konnte ich den kontakt zum Schnee sehr gut vermeiden. Weiter alles dem Grat entlang. Anfangs noch sehr gemütlich breit, wurde der...

Start of the hike in Unterkunkels at 08:30 in the morning. With the mountain bike I followed the road towards Kunkelspass. This road is paved all the way. Somewhere past Oberkunkels as it became steeper, I mostly walked the bike. Near Kunkelspass, I left my mountain bike behind, and continued on foot up the white-red-white...

Piz Laviner (3137 m) is a peak which requires quite a long ascent/descent when you start from Tinizong or Savognin. But when making it a combination of bike & hike, it becomes much more manageable. Start of the hike just above the village of Tinizong at elevation 1320 m. I followed the alp road in direction Alp d'Err,...

Start of the hike at 7:30 in Ennenda at the train station. I brought my mountain bike along. Going uphill, I mostly walked the bike though. The road to Ennetberg and even further up is paved and in excellent condition. I parked the bike at elevation 1325 m. From there, I continued on the white-red-white marked trail to...

This hike covers the four peaks Motta da Sett (2637 m), Piz dal Sasc (2720 m), Piz Lunghin (2780 m), and Piz Grevasalvas (2932 m). During the ascent towardsPiz Grevasalvas, I tried out a new option for getting more easily up to the ridge between P.2724 and P.2794. During the descent from Piz Grevasalvas, I also tried out a new...

Eigentlich sollte der Titel heissen; Wasserdepot setzen mit Biwak Übernachtung und Bike Rekognoszierungs-Tour. Am Freitag Nachmittag mit dem Bike hoch zu meinem Biwakplatz oberhalb Stelli. Raufgefahren via Trüebbach-Palfries. Die Nacht angenehm, wenn auch gegen morgen sehr feucht. Eine Einheimische sagt mir das ich Glück...

Mit dem Bike von Sargans hoch via Meienfeld - Jenins - Mittelsäss. Ab Hoch Carneli zu Fuss (Skyrunning) dem Alpinen Wanderweg hoch zum Messhaldenspitz und weiter zum Vilan. Zurück den gleichen Weg zum Bike. Runter ging ich via Älpli den Wanderweg der direkt unter der Bahn runterführt. Um dieser Zeit ist kein Wanderer mehr...

This hike was inspired by hike reports from ivo66 describing the ascent on the Pizza Grossa south ridge. It ended up being a wonderful hike in picture perfect weather! I started my hike & bike just above the village of Tinizong at elevation 1320 m. I followed the alp road in direction Alp d'Err, mostly walking the bike. At...
