Details

Description

Right at the bus stop in Brail, the path leads upwards. Following the Via Engiadina we reach the Alp Barlas-ch after about 3 km and 440 hm. Now follow the path from valley to valley, first the Val Val dPlüschezza, then the Val Urezza, Vallanzun and finally the Val Schivòund. We cross small mountain streams again and again. It is worthwhile to take a break from time to time to enjoy the view. Shortly before Alp Munt, after about 11.5 km, the partly quite steep descent through the forest to Zernez begins.

Geheimtipp

  • Possibility on Piz Urezza 2807 m.a.s.l. direction Val Pülschezza. (Attention not marked!)
  • At Pradea and Charbunera you have the possibility to walk directly to Zernez. Nice zigzag trail.
  • A visit to the National Park House or the family bath is recommended.
  • Also suitable as a round trip: On the valley path on the left bank of the Inn to Prazet (Brail) from there towards Alp Barlas-ch (+ 6km)
