Description

From Alp Grüm the path quickly descends through the larch forests to Alpe Palü and then rises up to Lagh da Caralin. It is possible that there are still some patches of snow to cross along the route. It is worth it because the glacial lake fed by a dozen waterfalls is a unique, solitary place where the falling water creates extraordinary optical and acoustic effects. Furthermore, the icy water is ideal for a Kneipp trail.

Waypoints

Viewpoint Valposchiavo

Alp Grüm

Alp Grüm is located at 2,091 m above sea level on the edge of the first slope of the Valposchiavo. From here you can enjoy an unmistakable view over the whole Valposchiavo, which extends to Italy. In 1910, the Bernina Line of the Rhaetian Railway was built here. The pretty station building, made of quarry stones, is both a restaurant and a hotel and was opened in 1926.

Gli alberi e il gioco di luci e ombre - The Trees and the Shadow Play

In order to match this spectacular nature, the official white-red-and-white trail markers have been newly painted by an artist, called Stefan Rüesch.
