Baselgia, Reformed Church of San Giachem, Bever Architectural History: The Church of San Giachem was first documented in 1334 as "ecclesia Sti. Jacobi," with another mention in 1370. - Regarding this predecessor church: Excavations and plaster removal in 1966/67 revealed that the entrance was located in the frescoed west wall. In 2007, the old church floor, along with the foundations and fresco fragments in the rubble, was uncovered. Presumably, a barrel vault existed above the chancel in the east. A dendrochronological analysis indicates a construction date in the first quarter of the 14th century. - In 1501, the church was rebuilt and consecrated. From 1665 to 1667, a large, chancel-less hall church was built under the architects Giovanni Caserin and Francesco Pancera, retaining the west wall. The church was now oriented to the west, and the entrance was moved to the east. Between 1670 and 1673, Pancera and Giacomo Cornet built a new church tower on the north side of the facade, following a common Baroque model. In 1852/53, the gallery with organ (Zimmermann, Munich) and pulpit was installed. Renovations followed in 1886 (three new bells, Theus, Felsberg), 1899 (shingle roof replaced with a copper roof), 1952 (asbestos cement roof), 1966-69 (tower, west wall, organ: new case, Metzler, Dietikon), 1997 (organ, Felsberg), and 2004-2010 (extensive exterior and interior renovation, shingle roof). Exterior: The attractive tower with its octagonal upper story and lantern onion dome was renovated in multiple colors, according to its original appearance. In winter, a flat roof in front of the portal protects it from snow sliding off the faithfully reconstructed hipped roof. In the wall next to the east facade, a door leads to the cemetery and the west wall. A roof shelters the medieval remains uncovered between 1966 and 1969: the walled-up tuff portal of the old church and remnants of three Gothic murals from around 1350/60: St. George slaying the dragon in the presence of a charming princess, St. Michael weighing souls, and the preliminary drawing of a St. [unknown figure].

A beautiful, long trail from the Albula Pass summit down to La Punt. The first half is graded S1, often very flowy, while the second (lower) half is graded S2 in parts.

The lower part of the trail is a bit more difficult than the upper one, sometimes slightly blocked, often a bit swampy, mostly S2.

From the Albula Trail you usually have a good view of the Inn Valley, especially straight ahead to Piz Mezzaun.

It's so beautiful here, on the dam between the Inn and the Lej da Gravatscha.

Watch the pros at the Swiss Epic race down from the Albula Pass to La Punt at an incredible speed

Albula Pass, a beautiful road up from Tiefencastel, with several tough sections before Bergün, and very little traffic! Full of great places to stop for a snack, the road climbs parallel to a railway line that occasionally shows itself from the road, offering great views.

Relatively easy climb from the Engadin, rather steeper and more strenuous climb from Davos (Dürrboden).
