Details

Description

From Maloja, you can start (as recommended here) at the Longhin restaurant or at any of the other parking lots/entrances. At first, it goes relatively flat to Isola, where you make a round around the peninsula. Caution on the way back to Maloja: slow down in the forest before the junction to "La Palza" to master the tight curve without falling!
Now comes the heart of this round: Up, up, up through the beautiful forest. This is followed by a rapid descent. The more leisurely final part forms the round via Orden. Here, too, it is hilly and especially sunny and warm in the morning.

Hidden Gem

The excursion is sunniest in the morning or late afternoon.

Safety Note

Especially on the (icy) descents, it's better to reduce some speed.

Equipment

A well-waxed ski!
