The young Vorderrhein defines the setting of Rueras — its narrow Alpine valley gathers a compact settlement beneath the high slopes of the Tujetsch valley. Rueras is part of the municipality of Tujetsch in Graubünden’s Surselva region, where Romansh remains an important element of local identity. The Rueras stop on the Matterhorn Gotthard Bahn links the village with Sedrun and Disentis, while the line continues over the Oberalp Pass towards Andermatt. Hiking and mountain routes connect the valley’s hamlets in summer, and winter brings snowsport activity to the surrounding slopes.
