The easiest way to reach the Hörnligrat by bike, and with the least amount of effort, is by taking the Hörnli Express gondola from Innerarosa. From here, you can then head back down to the valley in virtually any direction. The flowing Hörnli Trail back to Arosa is particularly popular. The other trails (which are not designated trails, so be careful of hikes) are also very worthwhile, although some are a bit more challenging (e.g., to Lake Urden, S3).
