The Rhine Gorge is great for hiking. The total distance is about 25km, of which I only walked a fraction. However, the most beautiful section - in my opinion.

Easy tour goes well with children. Entry at the Valendas-Sagogn car park at the bridge. On the way there are barbecue areas on the gravel bank. Wood is available free of charge. Return with the RHB from Versam train station.
