Details

Description

The three-country route mostly follows natural roads from Val Müstair past the Reschen Lake to Scuol. Immediately after the start, the Swiss-Italian border is crossed. From Laatsch the route steadily climbs to St. Valentin at Lake Haider. Then it continues via Rojental to the highest point of the route, the Reschneralm (2020 m), which invites you to linger with its beautiful view over the Reschen Lake. Immediately after crossing the border into Austria, there is a short pushing section to the Grünsee. From San Nicla, the route follows via Sur En along the Inn to Scuol.

Hidden Gem

A visit to the St. Johann Monastery in Müstair, which is part of the UNESCO World Heritage, should not be missed on any trip to the region.
