Details
Description
The mineral water path «curas da baiver» starts in front of the Guest Information Scuol and leads over paths that guests used more than 100 years ago for the drinking cures. At the beginning of the old cure path to Nairs, the first information board on the Chalzina spring can already be seen. It then goes down to the Inn on the other side of the river. At the next bridge upstream, you reach Café Buvetta Sfondraz, a former drinking hall. When the café is open, the water from the Sfondraz spring can be tasted. Past the almost 150-year-old drinking hall «Buvetta Tarasp» on the opposite side and again over a bridge, you reach Chasa Carola in Nairs with the Carola spring. The strongly mineralized springs Lucius and Emerita are currently inaccessible due to rockfall danger on the slope behind the Buvetta. Now it goes back to the junction to Vulpera and up the hiking path. There you can admire venerable hotels as well as the spa park of the burnt-down Waldhaus hotel. Next to the spa park, there is a small museum about the hotel and the earlier spa tourism to discover. Through the forest over the Clemgia to Gurlaina and over the lower bridge, it goes to the old village part Scuol Sot. At the Plaz and Bagnera fountains, the Sotsass mineral water can be drunk. Over the Stradun, you reach the Plazzetta fountain in the Scuol Sura village part with water from the Vi spring. The circular route ends at the Guest Information Scuol.
