This summit rises directly north above the Lägh dal Lunghin. From this side, it appears as an imposing rocky bastion. However, its gently sloping eastern flank offers ideal terrain for ski tourers. Especially rewarding in spring.

Description

From Bivio:
From Bivio by ski lift to Mot Scalotta. Wonderful descent to Plang Champfèr, then ascent towards Pass Lunghin, descent towards Plaun Grand and ascent Piz Grevasalvas with subsequent beautiful descent through the lovely Cavreccia valley towards Bivio. 4 hours.

From La Veduta (Julier Hospiz):
Long ascent with many flat sections and depending on the route selection 2 - 3 counter-ascents, therefore not suitable for descent.
From La Veduta (2237.9 m) on P. R 480 to Fuorcla Grevasalvas (2688 m). Here begins the long traverse over the large terrace, south of Piz Materdell and Piz d'Emmat Dadaint. One advantageously descends southwest into the lake hollow P. 2503. Here another ascent above Lei Nair to the hollow at the southern foot of the rocks of Motta Radonda. Over a ridge high and below P. 2806 southwest to the summit. 4.5 hours.

From Plaun da Lej:
From Plaun da Lej (1799 m) over Grevasalvas to Plaun Grand (P. 2325). The Lej Nair (2456 m) can be overcome directly over a steep step or via a ramp leading off to the right. Now heading west somewhat to the right over the wide eastern flank of Piz Grevasalvas to the summit.
