Details

Description

The Schellen-Ursli route starts in Guarda in the village and follows along the sledding piste up to the clearing «Plan dal Növ».


Along the way you can read the first half of the Schellen-Ursli children’s book on large boards. Upon arriving at «Plan dal Növ», the Maiensäss awaits with the entire book, and the story can be finished.


For the return trip, we recommend a sled ride as Schellen-Ursli experienced it.


Sleds can be rented at Hotel Meisser in Guarda.
