Description

From Pontresina train station, follow the road that extends into Val Roseg. Shortly before the Roseg Glacier restaurant, the valley suddenly opens up with an awe-inspiring view. After the inn, continue following the path further into the valley until the trail winds up to the right toward Alp Ota. At the junction, continue up to Fuorcla Surlej with impressive views of Piz Bernina and Piz Roseg. After a rest, it is time to look forward to the winding descent, with a completely new view of the sparkling Engadin lakes in the Engadin. It feels like flying when you reach Lej dals Chöds, before you dive under the trees and tackle the final descent to St. Moritz. Finish the run at the inflow to Lej da San Murezzan, where you can dangle your legs in the refreshing water to cool down.
