Schiesshorn-Weg

The circuit of one of Arosa's most beautiful local mountains offers both challenge and enjoyment. From the village, the route initially goes downhill, passing the Untersee, to the starting point at the ARA. After the first nature experience past the Altein waterfalls, your fitness will be challenged by the rather steep ascent to Alteinsee. Located in the alpine plateau of the Strelakette, the lake is an ideal resting place with a view of the Schiesshorn. Further uphill to the Schiesshorn Furgga, the summit seems within reach. The final detour to the summit cross over the grassy east flank follows a narrow, unmarked path. A rewarding viewpoint over Arosa from a bird's eye perspective is guaranteed. The hiking trail leads back downhill along the Furggatobel, crossing extensive alpine meadows into the valley until it disappears into the fairytale forest. Down over the Isel, a large clearing with a barbecue site, you reach the starting point again.

From Arosa railway station, you hike past the Untersee to the wastewater treatment plant (ARA) Arosa. From here, follow the signposts toward Alteinsee. From there, follow the junction toward Schiesshorn Furgga. From the Furgga, an unmarked path leads to the summit. From the Furgga, it goes downhill toward Isel and Arosa back to the starting point.
