Take the Hörnli Express up to the Hörnli, where the hike starts in the middle of the Arosa Lenzerheide snow sports area, right by the Urden cable car. Enjoy the sun and the hustle and bustle of the skiers on the summit before you start the hike. The path leads leisurely down through the beautifully snow-covered landscape into the valley, to the right always the imposing rocks, to the front a magnificent view of the opposite peaks, the ski area and Innerarosa. When you arrive at restaurant Alpenblick, delicious food, sweet cakes and a warm coffee await the hungry hikers. Freshly fortified, you can then tackle the last stretch towards Innerarosa. In Innerarosa you can take the bus to the railway station if you wish.
