Beschreibung
Easy, enjoyable, and a bit exclusive. That's how you could briefly describe the snowshoe tour.
The start is at Waltensburg Demvitg. This is at the lower end of the elongated mountain village. At the beginning, still wearing snowshoes, you walk through a residential area and later over forest and woodland paths towards the castle complex. The highlight is naturally the Jörgenburg (Munt Sogn Gieri). Who has ever walked through a snow-covered castle garden? That's not an everyday experience. Additionally, the views of the surrounding mountain world are really beautiful.
The return route goes over the meadow of Casti and Cantuns with a short ascent back to the starting point.
Geheimtipp
Snowshoe hiking in the castle courtyard
A visit to the church in Waltensburg. The Reformed church is a gem among churches. Of particular art-historical value are the wall paintings of an unknown master from around 1330.
Sicherheitshinweis
This snowshoe route has no dangerous sections with avalanche risk. However, be sure to check the weather report and start only in good conditions.
Looking for bigger routes? For carefree enjoyment, we recommend our mountain guides and snowshoe hiking leaders of the Surselva.
For us humans, winter is a wonderful time! Deeply snow-covered landscapes, clear, pure air, and in the evening after the snowshoe tour a warm, cozy home awaits. For our wildlife, such as deer, stag, and chamois, however, winter is a hard time! Every disturbance by us humans, every flight, becomes a torment and drains their reserves. Stay on the published route! This way the wildlife and quiet zones are protected.
