Description
From Alp Güglia (2198 m) on the Julier Pass road, ascend southwards over the Ova dal Vallun and east of the striking moraine into the basin to P. 2372. Keeping to the left, climb quite steeply to below the imposing rock face of Piz Polaschin and then through a narrow section in the rock ledge to the right into a shallow valley. Leave the valley to the southwest over a step and continue east of Lej Lagrev, not very steeply, to Vadret Lagrev. Now head increasingly steeply to the right into the ridge depression northwest of P. 3084 and finally over the ridge to the north summit, usually the tour destination in winter.
The descent leads along the exit track.
Hidden Gem
The ski touring bus is available for the journey.
