Itinerary
Follow this bisse heading south. When you reach the point at which the Bisse de Chilcheri takes water you must climb a further 20 metres for the Bisse d’Eggeri. On the return trip, there is an initial sign-post for Grächen and you can reach the village by following this path downhill or you can continue along the bisse and follow an agreeable forest track back to Grächen.
A shady trail with a magnificent view over the Alps, this is a very busy trail with many possibilities for picnicking on the way.
