Rheinwald Valley

From Sufner the road runs through a beautiful expanse of forest. Soon afterwards the magnificent prospect of the Rheinwald valley opens up, with its backdrop of mountains: on the left the pyramid of Pizzo Tambo, to the right of this the blunt summit of Guggernüll (2,886 m/9,469ft), beyond this the sharp peak of the Einshorn (2,944 m/9,659ft) and in the background the Hohberghorn (3,005 m/9,859ft).

Hinterrhein (village)

Hinterrhein (1,624 m/5,328ft) is the last village in the Rheinwald valley, which comes to an end beneath the snow-capped peaks and glaciers of the Rheinwald or Adula Massif. There is a rewarding walk up the valley to the Zapport hut (2,276 m/7,468ft; four hours), at the lower end of the Rheinwald glacier, the source of the Hinterrhein. From here there are many possible climbs (experienced climbers only) - e.g. the Rheinwaldhorn (3,406 m/11,175ft; four hours), the Güferhorn (3,396 m/ 11,175ft; 3.5-4 hours, with guide), the Zapporthorn (3,149 m/10,332ft; four hours).
