Description

The starting point of this bike route is the Promulins Arena in Samedan. Via the main road overpass, you reach Lej Gravatscha, an idyllic mountain lake with barbecue areas. At the end of the lake, near Isellas, information boards provide details about the Innauen restoration project. The trail continues along the Inn to La Punt, where the path turns right into Val Chamuera, one of the last original side valleys of the Upper Engadin. The well-ridable natural road steadily ascends from the start, demanding strong muscle effort especially on steeper sections. The valley narrows into an impressive gorge and together with the towering mountains on all sides, it forms a breathtakingly wild backdrop. Suddenly, the old white packhorse house Serlas appears out of nowhere. Here, the valley splits and if you want to go further, you have the choice: either steeply up to Alp Prüna or a bit more leisurely along the Ova Chamuera to the challenging last section up to Alp Prünella. Return to Chamues-ch on the same trail. Passing through Chamues-ch you cross to the other side of the valley. Passing Arvins and on the old cantonal road, you reach the beautiful Engadin village Bever. At the end of Bever, the trail ascends a little before reaching Samedan.

Hidden Gem

In autumn and in the evening, the valley lies in the shadow and the descent to La Punt can be very cool.
