Prättigauer Höhenweg

The Prättigauer Höhenweg (high-level trail) is certainly worthy of the name: a hike along contours, on one side the sight of the Rätikon sandstone, on the other side changing views, wide and deep down. As a finale, pure summit pleasure on the Jägglischhorn.

From Landquart railway station, the route leaves the valley for Malans and continues uphill to Seewis. Open meadows and stretches of forest then alternate. Via Alp Stürvis, the predominantly white-red-white marked mountain trail reaches the Schesaplanahütte at 1,908 m. Covering 77 km, around 4,600 metres of ascent and almost 29 hours of walking, the route is designed to be completed in several stages.

Above the hut, the terrain becomes rockier. After the Gafalljoch, the route climbs below the Kirchlispitzen to its highest point at around 2,260 m. The mountain trail continues to define the long high-level section before reaching the Carschinahütte below the Sulzfluh. From here, the view extends into the St. Antöniertal.

The descent leads directly past the Partnunsee and continues to St. Antönien. The paths then once again cross open pastures and pass through forest. At Schlappin, the Schlappinsee lies directly beside the route; the final descent to Klosters follows. Klosters Platz railway station is just a few steps beyond the finish.
