Zügenschlucht
Description
From Davos-Glaris station, ride via Spina and Riederalp in the direction of Rinerhorn. After the last left-hand serpentine before the Rinerhorn mountain station, a singletrail branches off to the right towards Monstein. The flowing trail, which also has some technical sections, leads via Hauderalp and Oberalp to Monstein. This is followed by a short section on asphalt and a forest path before the next flowing singletrail starts towards Jenisberg, from where you take the forest road to Wiesen station. Ride up to the village of Wiesen and turn right at the Volg store in the direction of Brüggentobel. The path is well developed, but quite steep at the end to the ridge above Alp Steig. Shortly after the crest, the path turns into a wonderfully flowing, gently sloping single trail high above the Zügen Gorge. Follow this, at the end on a fast forest road and finally a few meters on the main road back to Davos-Glaris train station.
The path through the Zügenschlucht gorge had been impassable since mid-July 2023 due to storm damage. The gorge path between Schmelzboden and the Bärentritt near Wiesen station remained closed due to the ongoing risk of falling rocks. The Zügenschlucht gorge has been fully open again since September 2, 2024.

Tour on 08.06.2022 with start Rinerhorn ridden. Trails good.
From Hauderalp it is better to take the trail to Oberalp and only then to Monstein. Is also signposted accordingly.
There is a detour on the Zügenweg due to falling rocks. Most of it is rideable and meets the actual trail at Steigmeder. The tour can be shortened by following the river in the valley on the way back.
