Description

After the pleasant ride with the Motta Naluns gondola lift, you start at 2146 m above sea level towards Chamanna Naluns. At the first junction before the reservoir, turn right and ascend on a winding trail up to Fuorcla Champatsch. Once at the top, at 2723 m above sea level, you are rewarded with a breathtaking view of the Engadine mountain world. Surrounded by the mountains Piz Champatsch, Piz Tasna, and Piz Tschütta, the route continues downhill on a singletrail through Val Laver to Alp Prà San Flurin – alpine couldn’t get more authentic. From there, the singletrail continues downhill to the Zuort farm and further towards Val Sinestra.
