The Haufendorf Trans is a mountain village in Domleschg and is located 800 m above the valley floor on the western slope of the Fulhorn (2529 m). The highest point of the former community was the Stätzerhorn (2574 m) on what was then the eastern boundary of the community. Together, the two mountains mentioned formed the cornerstones of the northeastern and southeastern municipal boundary. Of the entire former municipal area of ​​744 hectares, 345 hectares were forested and 164 hectares were mountains. 151 hectares of the 225 hectares of agricultural land were cultivated as alpine pastures. The remaining ten hectares were settlement areas.

As a result of the merger of Tomils, Almens , Paspels , Pratval and Rodels , Trans has been part of the new Domleschg municipality since January 1, 2015 and is therefore a fraction of Domleschg.
