Walser people settled early in Partnun, below the Schijenflue, as they did in Gafiatal. Today an alp area with typical timber houses in the middle of the Rätikonmassiv - an outdoor eldorado. Schweizertor: Alpine crossing to Brand (A), where the first Walsers settled in the 14th century.

Please note: sure-footedness essential at Schweizertor.

Author’s recommendation

5 nights from Langwies to St. Antönien: CHF 769 in a double room with half board, 3 x luggage transport, packed lunch, the book "Walserweg Graubünden", travel documentation.
