Day Trip to Sardona – a UNESCO World Heritage Site
Description
A day trip to the Sardona tectonic arena offers unique insights into the history of the formation of the Alps. The innovative FlemXpress gondola provides visitors with a convenient way to get from the town of Flims to Segnes mountain station – the ideal starting point for hiking through the splendors of the UNESCO world heritage site.
