Description

From Scuol hospital towards Sent to the signpost for Pazos. The path turns left and passes a farm after two hairpin bends. Follow this road further to Pazos. From here the route continues uphill following the signposts towards Vastur. Across snow-covered flat moors the farm and restaurant Vastur are soon reached as the highest point of the hike. The view ranges from the tripoint in the southeast over Sent, the Lower Engadine Dolomites of the Sesvenna and Pisoc Groups to Scuol and Tarasp and far towards Guarda and Lavin.
