Description

The explorers' trail in Ardez is an experience for the whole family. You start at the church in the centre of Ardez. You then walk to the east, to the Lajet, where the first animals can be discovered. The path continues down to a boulder. A steep ascent now awaits us, which leads us above the village of Ardez. This is the highlight of the adventure trail, where you can enjoy the wonderful view of the Steinsberg ruins and the Engadine mountains. From here the path leads non-stop downhill, back to the church in the village.
