Description
From Disentis railway station we start on the cantonal road towards the Lukmanier Pass. Immediately at the turnoff to Mompé Medel, a long, cool tunnel awaits us, leading up to the village. Don't worry: there is hardly any traffic! The asphalt stays with us almost until Stagias. After Cavorgia and on to Mises las Cavorgias, we let it roll until we reach the lowest point on the Rhine. There is hardly any need for strength. But then it's uphill again. We cross the main road and as soon as we reach the village of Mompé Tujetsch, we reach the highest point again. The word Mompé, by the way, comes from "pede monte", and means: situated at the foot of the mountain.On the descent to Disentis, it's okay to look around while driving.
