Beautiful, but physically demanding hike to Seewis. However, the hike is not technically difficult and the views into the Rätikon and the Prättigau are extraordinary.

- Description
-
A physically demanding hike including a Vilan summit experience. We ascend via the normal route. Crossing the ridge eastwards past the impressive Steinmanndli, we reach Sadreinegg. Now we turn right and hike partly on the forest path, partly on the mountain trail shortcut towards Guora, but then turn off at signpost 66.3 towards Valcaus. Through short forest areas and open passages we reach the Maiensäss Valcau mountain hut. Thanks to numerous freight roads we have multiple different routes to choose from here to Seewis. The easiest way is to travel by kick scooter.
