The Averses Valley - what a valley! It seems magical, somehow forgotten for centuries.

Excellent climb - starting from Thusis makes for a great circuit. There are tunnels so take care and some lights, even though they are not really long, you are climbing and so slow - traffic was OK when I went. Listen for the Marmots screeching near the top.
Juf village has toilets and cafes so you can stop for refreshments before the run back down the hill. toilets at Andeer before the climb :)

The Averses Valley - what a valley!
It seems magical, somehow forgotten for centuries.
The route climbs leisurely - except for a middle section between Cröt and Cresta - to the mountain village of Juf, the highest year-round inhabited settlement in Europe. For a long time, the Avers Valley was isolated by the gorge of the Avers Rhine and could only be supplied via the high passes in the south. It was not until a road was built that the people of Avers gained access to the north. Today, about 150 people still live in the valley.

Das Averses Tal - was für ein Tal!
Es wirkt magisch, irgendwie jahrhundertelang vergessen.
Die Strecke steigt gemütlich - bis auf ein Mittelstück zwischen Cröt und Cresta - bis ins Bergdorf Juf, der höchstgelegenen ganzjährig bewohnten Siedlung in Europa. Das Averstal war lange durch die Schlucht des Averser Rheins isoliert und nur über die hohen Pässe im Süden zu versorgen. Erst durch den Bau einer Strasse erhielten die Averser Zugang zum Norden. Heute leben noch ca 150 Menschen im Tal.
