The panoramic trail LAAX runs in the first third above the timberline. As soon as you have left the tree line behind you, you follow the ridge with always breathtaking views to Flims and the Signinga group. The trail continues over the Runcahöhe, which invites you to stop for a break, before continuing on the famous waterway "Trutg dil Flem" to the Flims valley station.

In the summer half-years 2023 and 2024, the Arenaxpress gondola lift will take you comfortably up to the Nagens mountain house. The gravel road below the mountain station leads in an easterly direction to a hiking trail that descends towards the Nagens reservoir. From point 1986, follow the ridge in a southerly direction, with the reservoir to the right and a magnificent view to the left. Always on the municipal boundary until the path turns west. In varied terrain, crossing the tarred road three times, it goes downhill until the bus stop Val Vau. Those who have had enough take the Nagens shuttle down to the valley or walk on the tarred road to Laax Murschetg. Those who still have stamina, go via Runca Höhe and a stop in the restaurant on the award-winning water trail "Trutg dil Flem" to the valley to Flims village.

Author’s recommendation

Along the ridge there are several places to stop and enjoy the view. Stop at the restaurant on the Runca Heights or barbecue at the idyllic fireplace.
