Piz Sardona
A big hike-and-bike mountaineering tour in the Calfeisental: from the Gigerwald reservoir to the Sardona hut and up Piz Sardona, Piz Segnas and Trinserhorn — in the heart of the UNESCO Sardona Tectonic Arena.
Piz Sardona can be climbed together with the Piz Segnas and the Trinserhorn in one long day, as part of the famous “Sardona Trilogy”.
The approach follows the Gigerwald reservoir to the Alp Sardona, which serves very good food, and continues on to the Sardona hut. The ascent takes a good 4 h.
The next day it’s up Piz Sardona, then Piz Segnas, and finally the Trinserhorn.
Tip: This also makes for a nice bike-and-hike tour: you can take your bike on the Postbus to the Gigerwald reservoir and then ride along the road up to the Alp Sardona. If the Postbus is full, you may have to bike the whole way up from Bad Ragaz instead, but a long break, a huge drink and delicious food will be waiting for you at the Alp Sardona.
