Details

Description

The starting point of this tour is the small village of Lü in Val Müstair. From the western end of the village, an alpine path leads with a pleasant incline towards Alp Champatsch. The alp is located slightly west in the wide valley basin at the foot of Pass da Costainas. It is managed in winter and is a good place for wildlife observation. After the hut, we leave the winter hiking trail and move on the eastern flank of the Minschuns towards the north. Then it continues over Fuorcla Funtana da S-charl to Alp da Munt, a managed hut in the small ski area of Val Müstair. From here it goes westwards, always on the same level towards Ofen Pass. At Plaun dals Bovs, the Ofen Pass road must be crossed and the winter hiking trail followed to Hotel Süsom Givé. The small final ascent takes about 20 minutes.
