Details

Description

The geology path is an educational hike that shows how the dinosaur tracks got onto Piz S-chalambert, why the “Lower Engadin Window” is visited by geologists from all over the world, and much more about the structure, history, and formation of the mountains around Motta Naluns. At five locations, artistic illustration panels direct the view to the real mountains. The colored areas indicate rock types and phenomena that can be deciphered using QR codes. Alternatively to the digital solution, a brochure is available at the mountain railway ticket office.
