Wanderung Sunset Selun
Overview
Intro
Enjoying the sunset on the Selun
In the early evening, the “Kistenbahn” takes us from Starkenbach up to Strichboden. The sounds of cowbells carry us across alpine meadows and pastures to the summit of the Selun in a wonderful evening atmosphere. During our evening meal, we not only marvel at the magnificent panorama but also enjoy watching the sun set in an atmospheric display. We’ll soon be doing the same, but first we’ll descend into the valley, back to our starting point.
