Details

Description

The running route starts from the village center of St. Moritz (1822 m above sea level) via Salastrains and Signal up to Piz Nair (3057 m above sea level) and offers, besides sporting challenges, a spectacular view of the Upper Engadin upon arrival at the destination. The mountain railways offer the possibility to drop off luggage (backpack, sports bag) at the valley station of the funicular railway in St. Moritz village. This will then be transported up to Piz Nair and can be collected again at the top. This way, the view from the mountain restaurant can be enjoyed comfortably in dry clothes.
