The Schlappin Valley branches off from the main Klosters settlement at Dorf, rising east through forest and pasture into a quiet alpine corridor. It is one of the best options for walkers who want to get away from the ski area infrastructure and into genuine rural mountain landscape. The trail system is well-marked but carries only a fraction of the traffic on the main mountain routes.
The valley road extends to the small farming hamlet of Schlappin at around 1,500 metres, where a handful of farms operate summer grazing operations. From here the walking continues toward the Furkla pass, which crosses into the Austrian state of Vorarlberg — an unusual border crossing on foot through completely unspoiled terrain. The round trip from Klosters Dorf to the Furkla and back takes most of a day.
