Northeast Down the Hinterrhein Valley

After crossing the San Bernardino Pass, we had a 50 km downhill easy stretch. It was beautiful sailing down the Hinterrhein Valley, with deep gorges, dams for power, and an amazing church at Zillis.


The Zillis church was originally constructed in 1185 and is sometimes called the Swiss Sistine Chapel.

In the gorge below, see the tourist buses on the right side for scale.
