Switzerland Vacation Lenzerheide to Arosa Day 6 Schafalpi to Alplisee to Urden Fuerggli

Everyday in Lenzerheide starts with breakfast at the Kurhaus

Again we start our grueling coast down to the Rothorn Gondola for the epic climb to 2861m in preparation for our 2200m descent.

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 Schafalpi trail traverses along the side of this mountain, you can see the Alplisee in the back.

The tunnel that we went through is behind us.

We go down

Finally at the Alplisee

Chillin’ at the Alplisee

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.

Looking back to the Hornlihutte
