St.-Antönien-Pany-Weg
Overview
Intro
This is probably the most famous and popular winter hiking trail in the entire Prättigau. This wonderful scenic route connects the small villages of St. Antönien and Pany.
Description
The gain in elevation is tremendous right after leaving the village as the view back to St. Antönien confirms. After climbing through open woods the hikers cross an idyllic clearing which in summer time is an alpine wetland. The first mountain peaks appear in the background.
Leaving the forest the plateau below the “Valpuner Alp” is reached. The panorama stretches from the “Schesaplana” to the
Austrian peaks. Straight ahead is the «Chrüz», one of the schist foothills south of the «Rätikon», a favorite destination for ski and
snowshoe hikers. The peak shaped like an even pyramid rises over the mountain villages of Pany, Stels and St. Antönien, and is easily accessible. The Chrüz is also called «Rigi of the Prättigau».
The trail runs along the foot of the «Chrüz», on a nearly level and sunny plateau. Up and down through the open woods the terrain opens more and more and levels closer to the valley bottom. The groomed hiking trail runs pretty flat, then slightly downhill to Pany. The trail can be traveled both ways.
An enjoyable tour includes the careful planning of the same. Please inform yourself in advance at the local information center about the route and weather conditions. Depending on the season and weather conditions, this route may be blocked or interrupted
