After the big climb to get to this village, we were very happy to find a public drinking fountain to fill up our water bottles!

Great views and good cycle paths

Oberalp Pass (2,044 m). The highest lighthouse in the world is located here. It is a replica of the "Hoek van Holland" lighthouse, which served for 70 years (from 1900 to 1970) at the mouth of the Rhine in Rotterdam. It serves as a reminder that the source of the Rhine is not far from the Oberalp Pass: it is located at Lake Toma (Lai da Tuma).

The Upper Gate provides access to and from the old town of Ilanz. It was built in the Middle Ages and was one of four gates providing access to the town. Today, two of these city gates still exist: the beautifully painted Upper Gate and the more modest Red Gate.

The church looks great in the landscape when the weather is nice

Nice place and good restaurants

The structure was built in 1717, and two baroque spheres proclaim the Christmas message. In the center field are the coats of arms of the Three Leagues. Directly above the archway is the city's coat of arms. Other coats of arms include those of the Capols, Salis, Schmid von Grüneck, and the coats of arms of Zurich and Bern with the text: IN HONOREM POT. DOM ORUM TUGINORUM ET BERNATUM HOC GRATTUDINIS MONUMENTUMPOSUIT JOH. GAUD. SCHMIDIUS DE GRUEN. PRAET. TIR AO MDCCXVII., in gratitude for his help in renovating the gate in 1717. The paintings were restored in 1924 by Chr. Schmidt, Zurich.
