Cavorgia - Segnas

With snowshoes packed, we hike on the low-traffic road to the year-round inhabited village of Cavorgia. At the end of the lower part of the village, we put on the snowshoes. The path leads us on a snow-covered forest road, first flat then slightly downhill to the deeply snow-covered Maiensässe of Mises las Cavorgias. We continue to the lowest point, the bridge over the Rhine, and ascend on the other side to the main road. If no one has broken trail before us, the ascent can take quite a bit of energy. Upon reaching the main road, we take off the snowshoes and hike up the cleared road to Mumpé Tujetsch.

In Curschettas, on the winter hiking trail to Sedrun, we find the continuation of the snowshoe trail to Prau sura, a flat sunny alp with well-maintained Maiensässe. Leaning against a warm wooden wall, we enjoy the peace and the mountain views before continuing the path over the Maiensässe of Run Cunel to Segnas, our destination.
