The mountains on the west side of the Davos valley were made conveniently accessible by the opening in 1931 of the Davos-Parsenn-Bahn, a funicular 4,106 m/13,472ft, time 25minutes). From the Höhenweg station (2km/1mi: 2,219 m/7,281ft) there are magnificent mountain walks without any real climbing.
One of the finest paths in the Davos area is the Panoramaweg, which runs from the Parsenn hut through the Meierhofer Tälli valley to the Höhenweg funicular station and from there through the Dorf-Tälli and under the Schiahörner to the Strela pass. From the Parsenn hut it is a half-hour walk to the Gotschnagrat (2,285 m/7,497ft).
The Strela pass (2,350 m/7,710ft), reached by the Schatzalp-Strela cableway (length 1,760 m/5,775ft, height difference 488 m/1,601ft, time 10 minutes; restaurant), passes larches over 1,000 years old. From the Strela pass a cabin cableway (opened 1981) ascends to the lower station of the Haupter-Tälli Ski-lift which goes up to the Weissfluhjoch.
From Höhenweg the mountain train continues up to the Weissfluhjoch (2,663 m/8,737ft: restaurant), with views of the Silvretta and Flüela groups, from Piz Buin to the Tinzenhorn. From the upper station there is a cableway to the summit of the Weissfluh (2,844 m/9,331ft: restaurant), from which there are superb views in all directions. There is also a cableway from the Weissfluhjoch to the Parsenn hut (2,200 m/7,218ft: retaurant), two-hour walk from Wolfgang.
