Details

Description

The short winter hike starts at the mountain station of the Ftan-Prui chairlift. Alternatively, you can also choose the ascent from the Scuol valley station with the gondola lift to Motta Naluns. From there it is two kilometres to Prui. At Prui there is a mountain restaurant with a sun terrace and a magnificent panoramic view of the Lower Engadine mountains.

This view accompanies us on the approximately four kilometres down to the mountain village of Ftan, alternating between open terrain and short, partly steep forest sections. At the beginning of the village, you pass the High Alpine Institute before descending and finally reaching the PostBus stop Ftan cumün or back to the valley station of the chairlift.
