Description

Take the train to Preda and climb up to the crystal-clear Palpuognasee. The path continues uphill along the lake shore, first along the pass road, then turning right to the green-blue lakes of Crap Alv Lajets and further up to the Fuorcla Crap Alv. Enjoy the view into Val Bever and of the distinctive Piz Ot. The descent down into Val Bever is steep, where you reach the alp road. A certain surefootedness is required for the descent. The final part leads comfortably to Bever.
