Description

From the bus stop in the middle of the small mountain village of S-charl (at 1,800 m above sea level.M.) to the Gasthaus Crusch Alba. Immediately after the terrace of this hotel, turn right and cross a bridge to the other side of the river «La Clemgia». This is where the trail begins. The signpost points in the direction of "Ils Mürins". The path is rather steep, but there are always flatter passages until the forest has passed and a beautiful view opens up! From here there is no longer an official route, but the destination is clearly recognizable, because it is right in front of the eyes, namely the Mot dal Gajer. On the Mot dal Gajer the view extends to Italy, Austria and the Bernina Group in the Upper Engadine. 

The descent runs on the other side of the mountain. First the path leads to the Fuorcla Schombrina and then down to Alp Schombrina. From here there is again a hiking trail that leads down to the river «la Clemgia». On the wide natural road the path leads back to S-charl. 

Note on the tour: Attention, between Mürins - Mot dal Gaier as well as Fuorcla Schombrina and Plan d'Immez there is no signposting.
