Details

Description

From Susch railway station, the path leads to the western end of the village. Cross the covered wooden bridge to reach the other side of the Inn, where the hiking trail begins. The trail always follows the Inn upstream to the spacious plains on the valley floor. Where the valley becomes narrower and narrower and the Engadine road, the Inn, the cross-country ski trail and the winter hiking trail share the space, you continue to Zernez. There you walk through the village to the railway station.
