Academia Vivian Trail

Description
We start the tour at the starting board in Fadretsch (Curaglia) with our snowshoes packed until we reach the turnoff onto a snow-covered field path. The path leads us slightly uphill along the sunny slope through an open birch forest. At Vergera we circle a crest with a road stick that is reminiscent of the old Lukmanier mule route, when there was no road leading through the gorge. Shortly afterwards we reach the turnoff to the left up to the Plaun Tiatscha. It is the place with the most beautiful view of Disentis! Now we share the path with the sledders at times, which is why caution is advised.
Stagias is the highest point of the tour and we take a break in front of the Academia Vivian, which is somewhat hidden between the birch trees. To get back into the valley we follow the signs, but every now and then we have to take a turn into the untouched white. We still want to stir up a little snow!
At the road in Mutschnengia we visit the Cuntera panoramic restaurant and afterwards we visit the interesting suspension bridge right behind the last houses in the village before we end the tour on the cleared road.
