Wilderness of stone and water. The wind sweeps over the cushion flowers and makes the cottongrass dance. The colors of gentian and alpine bistort compete in brightness in the heart of Parc Ela.

Description

Through the rocky amphitheater formed by the Tinzenhorn and its subsidiary peaks, Piz Cuolmet and Piz Crap on the right side, as well as Piz Ela with Piz Spadlatsch, Piz Uglix and Piz Radond on the left side, the trek leads up to the pass. Rock debris and scree dominate here. Lichens still find a habitat. They even withstand drying out and frost. In the sedimentation zone of Lai Grond, the cottongrass blooms and on the ascent to Furschela da Tschitta, the alpine cowslip glows, forming a flat cushion in its shades of pink. Inhabiting the uppermost part of the mountain, it is increasingly under pressure due to climate warming. Our gaze sweeps over the Laiets to the peaks that crown this fascinating natural landscape. The green of the mountain pine replaces the earth tones. The waters from Val Tschitt and Val Mulix unite to form a wild stream: the Rabgiugsa. At the valley outlet, the wild stream forms a beautiful debris cone, the construction site for the Maiensäss settlement/Aclas Naz.
