Details

Description

From Lavin follow the signposts towards Chamonna dal Linard. Shortly after leaving the village, a sparse forest begins. The footpath crosses the forest road several times before reaching the viewpoint Plan dal Bügl. With the mighty Piz Linard, the highest peak of the Silvretta in view, the path ascends pleasantly to the Chamonna dal Linard. The hut is serviced in the summer months. The hiking trail continues, partially following the outflow stream of the lakes, up to the Glims lakes. The lakes lie in the middle of an alpine landscape and are ideal for a lunch break. Directly after the uppermost lakes, the summit formation of Piz Linard begins. Between this and the Piz Glims further left, the Fuorcla da Glims pass, the highest point of the hike, can already be spotted. On the other side of the Fuorcla follows a short descent into Val Sagliains. Over a small bridge, you reach the other side of the Aua da Sagliains. Following this wild mountain stream, you walk through the whole Val Sagliains until above the Vereina car shuttle station you meet the forest road again, which leads you back to Lavin over the Aua da Sagliains.
