Description

The descent from the Camona da Punteglias opens up impressive views and passes two rushing waterfalls. Chains provide additional safety in exposed areas. Further down, the rough rocky landscape turns into gentle meadows. Piz Medel and Piz Vial shine in the distance. Through shady forests, the route leads to Alp da Schlans, where the view of the Anterior Rhine Valley opens up. Shortly before Brigels there is a small mountain lake, before it goes down to the village at 1300 m on a forest path.
