The Rabiusa ( [ʁɐˈbɪ̯ʊzɐ] ? / I , Rhaeto-Romanic also Rabiosa , i.e. 'the raging', in the Safier dialect Rii , i.e. Rhine ) is a 32-kilometer tributary of the Rhine . Audio file / audio sample

The mountain river rises in the northern slopes of the Bärenhorn ( 2929  m above sea level ), where the old mule track leads from Safien over the Safierberg alpine pass ( 2486  m above sea level ) to Splügen , i.e. in the border area with the Hinterrhein district . The Rabiusa flows through the wooded Safien Valley and flows into the impassable Versamer Gorge, where it is spanned by the Versamer Tobelbrücken , in the also deeply cut Vorderrhein ( Rhine Gorge ).

At Safien-Platz the Carnusbach flows from a south-easterly direction right into the Rabiusa. The Walser village Safien-Platz is the only place directly on the river.

10 road and 6 pedestrian bridges cross the Rabiusa.
