Autumn hikings around Chur

Autumn colors, vineyards, and the Rhine: three circular tours and a 30 km trail along the Rhine combine enjoyment and nature. Over 40 km of signposted trails invite you to go hiking—often snow-free until late autumn. Wine, views, and scenery make for special autumn moments.

Starting in Chur, this scenic circular hike takes you over Mittenberg to picturesque Maladers. Golden forests, sweeping views of the Rhine Valley, and a picnic area make this hike an autumnal delight—perfect for anyone who wants to combine city life with nature.

From Chur via Brambrüesch to Dreibündenstein and on to Feldis: this panoramic tour offers golden alpine meadows, colorful forests, and a charming mountain village. Easy to plan thanks to the mountain railway and round-trip ticket – a tour with plenty of views and character.

Short, steep, and rewarding: the hike to the Rote Platte starts at the Fürstenwald and leads through the autumnal forest to the summit, offering spectacular views over the Rhine Valley. Sure-footedness and a head for heights are required on the narrow path in places – an experience for sporty hiking enthusiasts.

A leisurely circular hike through the fascinating Rhine Gorge with a suspension bridge and views: from Reichenau, the route leads along the Vorderrhein to the Wackenau ruins and back through the Bonaduz Forest. If you are looking for spectacular nature and autumnal atmosphere, this is the place for you.

Wide nature trails, golden forests, and unobstructed views: the circular hike along the Calanda massif can be started flexibly from Obere Au, Haldenstein, or Felsberg. The autumnal mix of wide open spaces, tranquility, and panoramic views makes this tour particularly appealing. Please note the military site's closing times!
