Description

Stage 1: Guarda - Chamonna Tuoi CAS


The ascent starts in Guarda on an alpine path into the Val Tuoi. The path runs along Alp Suot to the Chamonna Tuoi CAS. The Chamonna Tuoi CAS is the ideal starting point for further ski tours and is mostly open all winter.


Stage 2: Chamonna Tuoi CAS - Hinter Jamspitz (3156 m above sea level)


The tour starts at Chamonna Tuoi with a northeastern ascent of about 150 metres. Afterwards, the route continues east over Plan Furcletta. Below Piz Furcletta at about 2800 m above sea level, the tour continues to the crossing to the Jamtal Glacier between Hinter Jamspitz and Piz Urezzas. Hinter Jamspitz is bypassed to the northeast to the Jamjoch (3034 m above sea level). The summit leads via the steep north slope to Hinter Jamspitz (3156 m above sea level). The last meters to the summit are tackled on foot. Several descent options exist including to the Jamtal Hut DAV, to Val Tasna, or back to Guarda.
