Zügenschlucht Adventure Trail & Landwasser Viaduct
The Zügenschlucht (Zügen Gorge) Adventure Trail is a spectacular hiking route through a rugged gorge, offering breathtaking views of the engineering marvel that is the Landwasser Viaduct, a UNESCO World Heritage site and a prominent feature of the Rhaetian Railway. The trail leads through tunnels and over bridges, with information boards detailing the geology and history of the gorge and the railway construction. It's a moderate hike, approximately 2-3 hours long, suitable for families. The viaduct, with its five towering arches, is a truly iconic sight. Access points are near Monstein or Wiesen, with public transport links. The trail is generally accessible from late spring to late autumn.
