Description
This stage leads from the monastery of San Gian (Romanesque Son Jon) in Müstair mostly off the main road up the Münsstertal (Val Müstair) to Tschierv, where we leave the valley floor and hike northeast up the slope to the small stage village of Lü. The village is located on a sun terrace high above the Münstertal and is the highest independent political municipality in Switzerland. The village is characterized by a late medieval Protestant church worth seeing.
Geheimtipp
Romance is also spoken in Graubünden, the 4th national language of Switzerland hence the nickname "Son Giachen".
