Details

Description

From the small church of San Plasch, the path descends into the ravine up to the Puntsot Bridge, then leads steeply upward. Follow the signpost to "Vadrain-Vinadi."

On the old field path, pass the meadows of Mundaditsch and the forest Urezzas, then follow the wide road leading up to Martina about 150m downhill. Then turn left back onto the path to shortly reach the Vadrain elevation.

Continue to the forest worker's hut in La Vota (signpost: Pra d'Arsüra-Vinadi), then into the forest and down to the ravine of Val Tiatsch. Walk along the increasingly narrow path to the forest clearing Pra d'Arsüra. The area becomes wilder and quite steep in places, but the path is easily walkable.

Crossing the Val Mundlin, you soon reach an impressive viewpoint. Then the path descends very steeply to the left into Val Zipla, followed by a less demanding descent to Vinadi.
