Route line is approximate. Plan with a navigation app before you ride.
Why it is a next step
A good second step: one pass on a wide main road that is open all year, with a maximum of 11%. The climb from Chur is long (about 7% over 14 km), so ride the loop as published, climbing from Tiefencastel and descending to Chur. Returns along the Rhine valley without another pass.
