Rheinquelle Trail
Route Information
Best Time of Year
Description
On more than 40 kilometers and about 3000 meters of altitude you push your limits - to the source of the Rhine.
From Sedrun, high above the NEAT base tunnel, the route leads along narrow paths first to the ridge of the Tgom, followed by the ultimate and partly pathless challenge on the Piz Cavradi. After a stop for a drink at the Maighelshütte, two more highlights follow. Lake Toma, the source of the Rhine that gave the run its name, and Piz Pazzola as the highest point of the run.
Those who like it shorter return to the start after the descent from the Tgom. That adds up to 16 kilometers and 1125 meters of elevation gain!
Take part in the Rheinquelle Trail Event, which is held every year in July.
