Description

This route, starting in Zernez, leads into the Upper Engadin and then on the proven Puter route from S-chanf back to Scuol. The highest point of the race is at 2,000 m above sea level, so the route can also be driven at cold temperatures (and possible snowfall). The route lengths are also designed so that they come quite close to the original distances.

Hidden Gem

This variant also makes it possible to hold a race of more than 100 km even in bad weather.

Safety Note

The route was rated under favorable weather conditions; current weather conditions and forecasts must be carefully observed before starting the route.
