Details

Description

A path leads from the edge of the village of Guarda up into Val Tuoi. At the first junction turn right. Attention, there may be sledders on the path here! At the forest edge, the middle path leads north to Plan dal Növ, where the sledding path begins. The ascent takes about 40 minutes. At the forest edge, the path turns right. The sledding path starts steeply with a sharp right turn and then goes through several short consecutive tight curves in the forest. At the forest end, the path becomes flatter and offers a beautiful view of Guarda.


Note the wildlife quiet zone where the sledding slope starts. Above the official entry, sledding or walking is not allowed. Additionally, the sledding path is used as a winter hiking path, so please be considerate of pedestrians.

Hidden Gem

The sledding path is also the Schellen-Ursli winter trail. At Plan dal Növ there is a Maiensäss where you can read about the story.

Safety Note

The path is groomed after every snowfall. Please observe the condition reports in the winter sports report. The route was rated under favorable weather conditions; the current snow and weather conditions must be checked before starting.


Warning: The path is sometimes used simultaneously by winter hikers, snowshoe walkers, and sledders.
