Hüttentour Mittelbünden

On the three-day Hüttentour Mittelbünden, you pass through some of the most beautiful mountain villages in Graubünden and spend the night in two of the most extraordinary mountain huts: the Heimeli in the Walser village of Sapün near Arosa and the Berghaus Sulzfluh in St. Antönien. The bikepacking route starting in Chur and finishing in Landquart is also impressive when it comes to trails. Thanks to the section from Medergen to Sapün, the Durannapass with the descent to Küblis and the route from Stelser down to Prättigau, there are three really big but little-known singletrail highlights in Graubünden on the plan.

Mittelbünden is considered the unknown beauty of Grisons. Many people know the Schanfigg and Prättigau from driving through them, but some of the mountain bike gems of Grisons are located here. The Hüttentour Mittelbünden is a three-day mountain bike tour in the region between Chur, Arosa and Davos. The ascents are primarily tackled under your own steam and lead along well-maintained paths. The sections from Chur to Tschiertschen and from Küblis to St. Antönien are covered by post bus. The descents are mainly on flowing single trails, but experience in alpine mountain biking is an advantage.

The Hüttentour Mittelbünden is tackled independently as a bikepacking tour; luggage transport is not possible. However, the selected huts have hotel standards. The mountain hotels in Sapün and St. Antönien are some of the most unusual and rustic places to stay in Grisons and also offer impressive culinary delights. Fun single trails connect them, with the route described in detail in the trail book and ridden using GPS tracks. The clothes and equipment required for the three-day hut tour will fit in your own rucksack. It is recommended to book between Sunday and Thursday, as the mountain huts are often fully booked at weekends.

The stuffiness of the masses in a mountain hut is definitely a thing of the past. Because the new luxury is sophisticated simplicity. This is the essence of the "Hüttentour": the carefully selected mountain huts offer exceptional culinary experiences, a combination of modern and historic architecture and warm hospitality. The only thing missing is a television - in the evening program, the crystal-clear starry sky is on.

The "Hüttentour" is also exceptional when it comes to mountain biking, as almost every farm in Grisons has a single trail connection. The stages of the "Hüttentour" take in some of Grisons great trail classics as well as lesser-known regions. The "Hüttentour" is also suitable for e-mountain bikers, but experience on single trails is a prerequisite.

Simplicity is also a top priority on the "Hüttentour" on the bike. That's why all the luggage for the three days is carried in the rucksack, no luggage transport is possible. However, the selected huts are of hotel standard. On almost all stages, there is also the option of taking the Postbus or Rhaetian Railway to make some of the ascents easier.

The Hüttentour Mittelbünden can also be easily completed on an e-mountain bike. However, experience in battery management is required to reach the stage destination on a single charge. Sockets are available in the huts to charge the battery. However, it is important to take your own charger with you.

The Hüttentouren are prepared as complete trips, but you make your own individual bookings for accommodation and mountain railway tickets. The detailed travel guide provides you with all the information and contact details you need for hassle-free booking. Your personal package guide also includes detailed route information, including GPS tracks.

To pay for your booking, you will be redirected to the Ride checkout. Once your booking has been successfully completed, you will immediately receive an email containing a link to your digital booking dossier.
