Valorsch Bike Tour
Three mountain creeks form the framework for the Valorsch-Tour.
difficult
Distance 13.6 km
From the Walser hut settlements in Steg the route leads north through the rolling countryside along the Samina river, then follows the Valorsch river south to Alp Güschgle. At this point the country path ends and a twenty minute walk, pushing your bike, is necessary to reach Alp Guschg.
Once the country path has been reached only a few minutes are needed to arrive at the Sassförkle, the highest point of the round tour. The descent to Malbun goes west following Malbun river until you are back at the starting point in Steg.
