Hikers also like to replace the calories consumed with a hearty gold panner steak. Gold panning in the Rhine can be planned for another day. T2

Description

We start the day with a post bus ride to Curaglia. On a low-traffic road we hike down to the Rein da Medel (Roman), one of the numerous tributaries of the Vorderrhein, which also bear the name Rhine. Soon we reach the old mule track on the other side of the valley, which leads via Mompé Medel to Disentis. The original, partly stone-lined path is still well preserved in places. Mompé Medel means "at the foot of the mountain to Medel". The village is located on a hill, from where we have a wonderful view of the monastery village of Disentis. On the steep descent to Cuflons we dive into a gorge-like scenery. The Vorderrhein squeezes from here to Fontanivas through a washed-out stream bed with numerous glacial potholes. Our steps are getting faster and faster, the camping restaurant in Fontanivas and with its fine cuisine beckons. But today we order a gold panner steak.

We return to Disentis by post bus.

Geheimtipp

The gold panner steak is unique: a tender piece of meat, with a delicious herb sauce and fried potatoes.

Sicherheitshinweis
