The Valser Rhine is a source of the river Rhine in the Swiss canton of Graubünden. The river originates from the Länta glacier and the Grauhorn glacier at the northern foot of the Rheinwaldhorn and initially flows through the Länta valley before it flows into the Zervreilasee reservoir. Before the construction of the reservoir, the brooks Hornbach and Canalbach would flow into Valser Rhine from the right at the village of Zervreila. Today, the brooks flow into the reservoir, as does the Finsterbach, also from the right.
Below the Zervreila dam, the Valser Rhine flows through the Valser valley and the municipality of Vals. Before the village of Vals, the Peiler Bach joins the Valser Rhine, below the village, the Tomülbach from Tomül Pass joins from the right. The Valser Rhine the flows past St. Martin and joins the GlenneratSuraua. Several kilometers downstream, the Glenner flows into the Anterior Rhine.
The Valser Rhine has many rapids and waterfalls and is very popular with canoeists.
