Thusis 2
Grisons

Panorama photographed on the main road near the Thusis Evangelical Church.

Thusis lies at the northern entrance to the spectacular Viamala Gorge on the Hinterrhein River. The town in the canton of Graubunden, Switzerland, is the starting point of the Albula Railway, many pass roads and excursions to the Heinzerberg and Domleschg area with its many castles.

Thusis had to be partially rebuilt after a devastating fire in 1845. The buildings, built in an elegant style influenced by neighbouring Italy, bear witness to the wealth and self-confidence of the time. For until the opening of the Gotthard Railway in 1882 and the completion of the Albula Railway in 1903, Thusis was an important station for the transport of goods and passengers from southern Germany to Italy by horse-drawn carriages and carts.

The Viamala Gorge, 4 km south of Thusis, is the largest and most impressive gorge in the canton of Graubunden. Rock walls up to 300 metres high flank the gorge, which is only a few metres wide in places. Even in Roman times, the Viamala was part of important north-south routes that were very dangerous for humans and animals. Today, the safe descent via 321 steps is open from April to November. Remains of Roman roads can be explored. Several bridges span the narrow gorge at a height of 70 metres, providing impressive views. With its varied landscape and the northern starting point for the long-distance hike on the Via Spluga over the Splügen Pass to Chiavenna in Italy, Thusis is becoming increasingly popular with tourists, who offer a network of trails stretching over 350 km to both hikers and cyclists.

Panorama fotografado na via principal próximo de Igreja Evangélica de Thusis.

Thusis fica na entrada norte do espetacular desfiladeiro de Viamala, no rio Hinterrhein. A cidade no cantão de Graubunden, Suíça é o ponto de partida da Albula Railway, muitas estradas de passagem e excursões para a área de Heinzerberg e Domleschg com os seus muitos castelos.

Thusis teve de ser parcialmente reconstruída após um incêndio devastador em 1845. Os edifícios, construídos num estilo elegante influenciado pela vizinha Itália, testemunham a riqueza e a autoconfiança da época. Porque, até à abertura da Ferrovia Gotthard em 1882 e à conclusão da Ferrovia Albula em 1903, Thusis foi uma importante estação para transporte de mercadorias e passageiros do sul da Alemanha para Itália em carroças e carros puxados por cavalos.

O Desfiladeiro Viamala, a 4 km a sul de Thusis, é o maior e mais impressionante desfiladeiro do Cantão dos Graubunden. Paredes rochosas com até 300 metros de altura ladeiam o desfiladeiro, que tem apenas alguns metros de largura em alguns pontos. Já na época romana, a Viamala fazia parte de importantes rotas norte-sul com grande risco para humanos e animais. Hoje, a descida segura através de 321 degraus está aberta de abril a novembro. Restos de estradas romanas podem ser explorados. Várias pontes atravessam a estreita ravina a uma altura de 70 metros, proporcionando vistas impressionantes. Com paisagem muito variada, e ponto de partida a norte para a caminhada de longa distância na Via Spluga, passando pela passagem de Splügen, até Chiavenna, em Itália, Thusis, está a tornar-se cada vez mais popular entre os turistas, aos quais oferece, caminhantes e ciclistas, uma rede de trilhos que se estende por 350 km.
