De Rijn ontspringt op een hoogte van 2345 meter in een klein meertje omgeven door hoge bergen. Vanaf het Tomameer stroomt het smalle bergbeekje via talrijke kleine watervallen langs de hellingen naar beneden. Van Andermatt naar het Bodenmeer loopt een groot deel van de fietsroute EuroVelo 15 langs de krachtige rivier, hier kunnen fietsers genieten van adembenemende landschappen. Na Chur, de oudste stad van Zwitserland met veel middeleeuwse straatjes, wordt het dal breder en loopt de route door Graubünden met landgoederen en wijngaarden in de Bündner Herrschaft, een toeristische streek die van de rechteroever van de Rijn tot de grens met Lichtenstein strekt. De fietsroute eindigt tot slot aan het Bodenmeer. Het landschap rondom het Bodenmeer heeft een lange natuurlijke voorgeschiedenis.
