Rätikon Höhenweg – day 1

We now have this classic 4-day mountain tour available as a guided trip through my business SwissMountainLeader – find out more !

Rätikon HöhenwegThe Rätikon is a mountain range in the Central Eastern Alps on border between the Austrian Vorarlberg, Liechtenstein and Graubünden (Grisons). The main peak is the Schesaplana at 2964m. My plan was to leave St. Antönien in Graubünden, CH and head for the Carschinahütte for the night. That’s around 818m in height gain but it’s a short enough walk from St. Antönien which works well as I’d arrived there by bus and train at around midday. I was able to walk for around an hour and half climbing most of the distance and stop for a picnic high up in the alpine pastures.
