Switzerland Vacation Lenzerheide to Arosa Day 6 Schafalpi to Alpisee to Urden Fuerggli
Sept 8
Links to All Switzerland Stories.
Everyday starts with breakfast at the Kurhaus
Again we start our grueling coast down to the Rothorn Gondola for the epic climb to 2861m.
The skies were angrier today necessitating the need for Gortex. Fortunately it was just windy and cool.
Lee had to check out the huge cross near the top of the Gondola.
Then we start the descent. This is also the start of the Bike Attack race and course. A >700 rider mass start ride with 2000m of descending, 200m of climbing over 18km.
We head down towards the tunnel.
Past the tunnel is an intersection where you continue with the Bike Attack route or head down to Alplisee and Arosa.
Sketchy Entrance!
Then the trail traverses along the side of this mountain, you can see the Alpisee in the back.
The tunnel that we went through is behind us.
We go down
Finally at the Alpisee
Chillin’ at the Alpisee
Then we make the trek to Alpenblick for Calanda Beer and Apple Struedle with vanilla sauce.
Then we do the big Hornlihutte climb up to 2513m
From there we traverse Urden Fuerggli and ride back to Lenzerheide.
