Description

The route starts in St. Moritz Bad at the Ovaverva indoor swimming pool and leads towards the Signalbahn car park. The path begins directly uphill and follows the valley run to the Via Alpina. From there a short section on asphalt and then on the forest road towards Salastrains. The Corviglia ski area lies at your feet and the route speeds behind the Hotel Salastrains via a path (not a proper hiking trail) right into the trail paradise. Over singletrails (beware of mountain bikers) and through a rocky area (parallel to the mountain bike flow trail) up to Corviglia. From there downhill to Marguns. From now on the beautiful singletrails begin with a great view towards the Lower Engadine. The path steadily climbs and then turns left to lead towards Trais Fluors (chairlift mountain station). Here you are usually alone and can enjoy the narrow path over huge scree fields. Arriving at the Trais Fluors lift mountain station, it then goes down again to Lej Alv. This reservoir lake is used as a storage lake in winter and in summer is circled by numerous athletes for altitude training. We run a little further to Corviglia and alternating over trails and forest roads to the Signalbahn. From here it goes down the same way we came up.
