Runda Sinestra

You start the gravel bike route in the sun-drenched Scuol (1243 m above sea level). Along the road, it goes straight into a climb towards the neighboring mountain village of Sent (1430 m above sea level). The Lower Engadine is nestled amid imposing mountains, and the panorama on the way to Sent is indescribable, especially in the morning light. From Sent, follow mountain bike route no. 442 left into the side valley Val Sinestra. Gentle inclines alternate with steep ramps. The surface soon changes from asphalt to gravel. The landscape is varied: at first, you ride through dense forest, which soon alternates with a deep gorge and later on the Alp Patschai (1943 m above sea level) with alpine meadows. After a short descent to the Punt Crusch bridge (1920 m above sea level), the route climbs again briefly and steeply. Following the mountain bike route, you now reach the most remote point of the circuit. About 250 vertical meters of punchy singletrail downhill await after Zuort (1715 m above sea level), an idyllic forest clearing far from noise and hustle. Downvalley, it then rolls a bit easier. First along the slope into the mountain village Vnà (1636 m above sea level) and then mostly downhill to Ramosch (1232 m above sea level). From Ramosch, you ride briefly on the road before turning left towards the Inn. Over a wooden bridge, you reach the campsite, from where you can leisurely roll back along the Inn on the Inn cycle path to Scuol.
