July 7, 2023,Hochalpines Slickrock-Abenteuer: Der Vorab Trail bei Flims

Today we first took the gondola up from Flims to the Nagens station at 2,100m. From there we had to crank up to 2,570m under our own power, which is more strenuous at altitude than it sounds. Here, at the foot of the Vorab Glacier, the Swiss slick rock adventure could begin: The "black" Vorab Trail first runs through a …

Today we took the FlemXpress to the Startgels station at 1590m. We wanted to go all the way to the top. Unfortunately, only section 1 (to Startgels) was accessible. The onward journey to Segens and Nagens Sura stations at 2233m were closed from Monday to Thursday for maintenance work.
So we had …

High first on an asphalt road, later on tracks from ski slopes, mostly on coarse gravel. Back along the driveway a bit. Then on trails in the S2 area and later on the hot, flowing Runca Trail. It was really fun with Ledi and Cyrill. Thank you two for coming, we have already discussed the next possibilities in this region. …

Nice Sunday Tüürli to the Vorabgletscher, or what's left of it. From Flims to Alp Nagens on asphalt. After coffee there, continue along gravel and gravel roads to the highest point and back again.
Now we head towards the Segnashütte, which unfortunately wasn't open. Wonderful view of the Tschingelhörner, Segnasboden, Piz Segnas etc. It's a shame it was so cloudy …
