Arena Alva" and "Rhiiblatt" become "Ruinaulta"

Die Rheinschlucht Ruinaulta ist Patin und Namensgeberin der Zeitung, die ab Januar 2014 die Titel «Arena Alva» und «Rhiiblatt» ablöst. In einer Umfrage unter den betroffenen Gemeinden und Leserinnen und Lesern sprach sich die Mehrheit für den romanischen Namen aus.

Little by little, the wild and romantic Ruinaulta is becoming a magnet for visitors from near and far. It will soon be possible to walk the entire length of the gorge. From the new year, the "Ruinaulta", with a circulation of around 8,000 copies, will also be available to read, according to a press release issued on Friday by Südostschweiz Medien (which also owns Werbewoche).

Just like the "Rhiiblatt" and the "Arena Alva", the "Ruinaulta" provides a weekly record of events in the municipalities from Ilanz to Felsberg. Marc Holdener and Judith Sacchi are responsible for the editorial content. Both are experienced "Rhiiblatt" editors. In addition to reports from the region, the newspaper contains club news and official publications from the municipalities. One reason for merging the "Arena Alva" and the "Rhiiblatt" is the "2015 regional reform". The idea of serving the region to the left and right of the Rhine Gorge and the neighboring municipalities with joint information also played a role. The increased circulation is also intended to offer businesses an extended advertising platform.

In addition to the printed newspaper, the "Ruinaulta" can also be obtained electronically as an epaper via the Suedostschweiz.ch portal. Unlike the printed edition, the electronic newspaper will be available to download the day before. There will be no other changes for subscribers to the "Arena Alva" and the "Rhiiblatt". They will simply receive their usual local newspaper under the new title from 2014. The "Ruinaulta" can be subscribed to for CHF 93 via the subscription service of Südostschweiz Medien.
