This easy winter hike starts at "Untersee" (Lake) in Arosa and winds through the forest on a well-prepared path to Litzirüti. On the way you walk along the Plessur and catch a glimpse of the Arosa line of the Rhaetian Railway. The wide hiking trail is very suitable for families and is also a highlight as a pleasant ride on a toboggan. In Litzirüti the hike ends directly at the railway station, from where you can take the hourly train back to Arosa or to Chur.
Author’s recommendation
Bring the sledge and enjoy the winding route through the forest.
